NYCB upcoming season.

The New York Sun has a bit up about New York City Ballet's upcoming two-month season. You can read it here

Quote
New York City Ballet's two-month spring season opens on April 29, and it's very nearly all Jerome Robbins. Robbins, who died in 1998, would have turned 90 this October. During the season there will be 10 all-Robbins programs, encompassing 33 of his ballets, reflecting the length and depth of Robbins's association with the company. He joined as dancer and choreographer in 1949, and worked with the company right up until his death.

The season opens with an all-Robbins gala performance, but two days later comes the real showstopper: "Fancy Free," without which no Robbins tribute would be complete. For this performance, NYCB has cast not only its own powerhouses Damian Woetzel and Joaquin De Luz, but also American Ballet Theatre principal dancer Ethan Stiefel.
