Icons of American Ballet at New Brunswick Performing Arts Center

New Jersey Ballet returns to New Brunswick Performing Arts Center with Icons of American Ballet, a vibrant program celebrating groundbreaking choreographers of American ballet. The performance opens with George Balanchine’s iconic Serenade, a poetic and sweeping work set to Tchaikovsky’s Serenade for Strings. Justin Peck’s In Creases follows, an intricately crafted, contemporary piece set to a score for two pianos, showcasing the dynamic interplay between music and movement. The program concludes with Twyla Tharp’s stylish and witty Nine Sinatra Songs, where couples dance through the complexities of love to the timeless voice of Frank Sinatra. Together, these three works offer an unforgettable afternoon of elegance and innovation.
