Ballet: Visionary Dances - schedule, program & buy tickets

Three choreographies - three visions for a contemporary ballet. Visionary Dances brings together dance artists who have each found an individual approach to academic dance and have taken classical ballet into new dimensions.

While Twyla Tharp was one of the first to combine the classical and modern worlds and whose In the Upper Room celebrates its 40th anniversary in 2026, Justin Peck and Wayne McGregor are currently among the most important and sought-after choreographers.
