NYC Ballet Fall Season
Tomorrow begins prep for New York City Ballet’s fall season. It will include a new ballet by Justin Peck to the music of Sufjan Stevens, which looks like it will be pretty neat.

Today begins the ballet’s time at the Saratoga Performing Arts Center, an annual visit that is always a great experience. I’ll be back in New York July 23rd and available for work through the end of August.

I’m back from my honeymoon and on the train to Washington, D.C. where the NYC Ballet will be performing next week. We visit every year and it’s always a great experience. I’m looking forward to it. When we get back to New York we load in our spring season.

I’m now in Ludwigshafen, loading in the first of NYC Ballet’s two stops here in Germany. Next week we head to Baden-Baden (Bill Clinton said it “is so nice they had to name it twice”).

A quick personal note: I’m getting married this weekend! Next up after that is an NYCB tour to Germany followed by a honeymoon in Europe.

With the close of George Balanchine’s The Nutcracker, we launch directly into our winter repertory season. Highlights include the return of “Ocean’s Kingdom” and an all-Wheeldon program that includes “Polyphonia”, the NYCB premiere of “DGV: Danse à Grande Vitesse”, and a new work.
NYCB’s George Balanchine’s The Nutcracker loads in tomorrow. It is a classic production that I’ll be working on for the rest of 2011.

I’ve just finished NYCB’s Fall season, which included the world premiere of “Ocean’s Kingdom”, choreographed by Peter Martins with music by Paul McCartney and lighting by Mark Stanley. It was a challenging project but also a fun one to be a part of. Next up is 12 Angry Men for New Players Company.

I just got back from a trip with Tom Gold Dance to Provence, France; Tel Aviv, Israel; and Bilbao, Spain. We performed a repertory that included works by Balanchine, Robbins, Petipa, and Tom Gold to sold out audiences in every country. It was a fantastic trip and the work looked great.

I’ve just returned from 3 weeks in Saratoga Springs, NY, the summer home of the New York City Ballet. We performed our usual varied repertory in the lovely outdoor setting of the Saratoga Performing Arts Center.
