People behind the production
Balanchine's Who Cares is a signature neoclassical ballet choreographed by George Balanchine, premiered in 1970 for the New York City Ballet. Known for its jazzy energy and Broadway-inspired pacing, the work showcases George Gershwin’s songs—arranged and orchestrated by Hershy Kay—through Balanchine’s kinetic, athletic movement. This page provides a detailed biography of the ballet, highlights from its discography, and up-to-date information on upcoming tours. As with all Balanchine repertoire, Who Cares? remains a cornerstone of the Balanchine Trust and is actively coached and preserved by The George Balanchine Foundation.
