@miamicityballet "Everything about Rubies is thrilling. The movements, the hips, the legs kicking, keeping your balance out of center... even the color red. It’s electrifying." Often considered the first full-length abstract ballet, Jewels is a pure dance triptych that takes us on a journey through a lush French landscape, infuses us with the vivacious American spirit and transports us to Balanchine’s home country of Russia — featuring three distinct musical styles played by a live orchestra. If you missed us a @kraviscenter this past weekend join us @arshtcenter Apr 1 - 3 and then @browardcenter Apr 23 - 24. Tickets from $30.
