As we wrap our first season at the Metropolitan Opera House in three years, we are thrilled to announce our return to the David H. Koch Theater for our Fall Season, October 20–30, 2022 ✨ For his final New York season with ABT, Kevin McKenzie has selected ballets by choreographers with special significance to him as both an artist and Artistic Director. Join us for the World Premiere of Christopher Rudd’s groundbreaking new work LIFTED, ABT Artist in Residence Alexei Ratmansky’s WHIPPED CREAM and THE SEASONS, Jiří Kylián’s SINFONIETTA, Frederick Ashton’s THE DREAM, and Jessica Lang's CHILDREN’S SONGS DANCE. The World Premiere work by Christopher Rudd aims to highlight, amplify, and celebrate Black creative voices. “I am honored to be returning to ABT to create LIFTED, which fulfills a long-held vision and ambition to bring together an all-Black cast and creative team to celebrate Black excellence within America’s National Ballet Company®. I am thrilled to again have the opportunity to collaborate with ABT’s exceptional artists and to create ballet that is socially and culturally relevant and reflects the communities in which we live.” – Christopher Rudd Tickets go on sale on Tuesday, September 6 at 10:00am ET.
