Ballet Festival: Jerome Robbins at Ahmanson Theatre

Ballet Festival: Jerome Robbins is an L.A. premiere and the only U.S. performance of this program in the 2026–2027 season, curated by New York City Ballet principal dancer Tiler Peck and presented as a Joyce Theater Production. The festival brings together an extraordinary roster of dancers from New York City Ballet, San Francisco Ballet, Paris Opera Ballet and other major companies to perform works by legendary choreographer Jerome Robbins, including Other Dances featuring Tiler Peck and Roman Mejia, In the Night, A Suite of Dances, and excerpts from Dances at a Gathering. Performed to live chamber music, the three mixed-repertory programs illuminate Robbins' unparalleled musicality, wit and emotional depth. In Suite of Dances, Peck becomes the first woman to perform the iconic role originally created by Robbins for Mikhail Baryshnikov.
