The crown jewel of the season is a new production of George Balanchine's The Nutcracker, opening in South Florida on December 15, 2017. The beloved holiday classic features vibrant, magical sets and costumed by Isabel and Ruben Toledo, Balanchine's classic choreography and Tchaikovsky's iconic score.

Program Three, opening on February 9, 2018, juxtaposes the old and the new. The company will perform Balanchine's classic Theme and Variations, with music by Tchaikovsky, as well as Jerome Robbins' The Concert (or, the Perils of Everybody). This program will also feature a world premiere by Brian Brooks, inaugural Choreographer in Residence at Chicago's Harris Theater, with a commissioned score by American composer Michael Gordon.
Program Four will open on April 6, 2018 with the MCB premiere of Concerto DSCH, the acclaimed Russian-American choreographer Alexei Ratmansky's inventive and exciting ballet, set to a seething Dmitri Shostakovich piano concerto. Two beloved Balanchine classics, Apollo and La Valse, will end the program and conclude the season.
