American Ballet Theatre's Crime and Punishment marks a landmark in contemporary ballet as ABT's first full-length work by a female choreographer. Choreography by Helen Pickett, co-directed by James Bonas, with a compelling score by Isobel Waller-Bridge, this production premiered October 30, 2024 at the David H. Koch Theater in New York. Featuring a large cast of around 39 dancers, the production combines striking set design by Soutra Gilmour, dramatic lighting by Jennifer Tipton, and immersive video design by Tal Yarden. The ballet is inspired by Dostoyevsky’s classic crime tale and brings a modern interpretive lens to a timeless narrative.
