John Neumeier's provocative adaptation of Hans Christian Andersen's The Little Mermaid returns to San Francisco Ballet April 19-28 at SF War Memorial Opera House. American-born Neumeier, who has been the director and chief choreographer of Hamburg Ballet since 1973, uses his own set, costume, and lighting designs for the ballet, which features an original score by Lera Auerbach. Renowned thereminist Carolina Eyck performs with the Grammy Award-winning SF Ballet Orchestra for the run of the production. Created for The Royal Danish Ballet in 2005 to commemorate the 200th anniversary of Andersen's birth, The Little Mermaid received its U.S. premiere at San Francisco Ballet in 2010 and was last seen with the Company the following year.

Artistic Director and Principal Choreographer Helgi Tomasson's The Sleeping Beauty returns to San Francisco Ballet on March 9 with performances through March 17 at SF War Memorial Opera House.

Set to Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky's beloved score, The Sleeping Beauty is a pinnacle of classical repertory.
