Rochester City Ballet has announced its upcoming lineup of productions as part of its Winter Digital Series. The series kicks off today, Friday, January 15, with "Dangerous Liaisons."
Check out the lineup below, along with links to purchase tickets!
DANGEROUS LIAISONS
This sophisticated drama of love and intrigue is based on the Pierre Choderlos de Laclos novel of the same name. David Palmer's original choreography with the Washington Ballet was brought to Rochester's ballet-loving community, at the Nazareth College Arts Center, in March 2019. Enjoy this twisted plot of seduction, betrayal, conquest, and heartbreak set to Vivaldi's iconic The Four Seasons concerti.

SLEEPING BEAUTY
Based on a 13th century legend adapted by The Brothers Grimm, the ballet tells the story of a cursed princess saved by true love. Other classic characters such as Little Red Riding Hood, the Blue Bird, and Puss & Boots appear in the celebration.
Please join us for this tour de force of ballet. Note: traditionally Sleeping Beauty can be more than three hours. RCB has adapted this ballet to keep it under two hours and appropriate for our youngest fans. We will begin the story when the Prince meets the Lilac Fairy in the forest and will include the classic Aurora's Wedding as our second act.

GREEN EGGS & HAM
Rochester City Ballet presents a charming retelling of Green Eggs and Ham, that iconic Dr. Seuss children's book about Sam-I-Am pushing his odd-colored meal on the stubborn narrator. Choreographed by former Artistic Director David Palmer, this family-friendly production is sure to please dance and story-lovers of all ages!
