A Midsummer Night's Dream - Ballet Tickets

A Midsummer Night's Dream is a landmark neoclassical ballet choreographed by George Balanchine, premiered in 1962 with the New York City Ballet. Known for its musicality, plot clarity, and expansive ensemble work, the evening-length score is assembled from Mendelssohn’s works, crafted to create a seamless narrative experience. Balanchine, often hailed as the father of American ballet, brought a distinctly American sensibility to this masterwork, which remains a central piece in repertory for companies around the world.
