New York City Ballet Tickets

I was amazed by the power and precision displayed on the stage it was amazing.

I have followed this ballet company on line and on DVD's and TV for decades but didn't think I would ever get a chance to see them live and so this was quite a treat. They were magnificent. And seeing Peter Martins come on stage at the end to take a bow was a wonderful surprise. I have followed him from the days of his dancing under Balanchine. It was a great evening for us. The Civic Theater is set up beautifully - we could see everything and the flow of people in and out and to the bathrooms and to and from the parking lot was as smooth as glass. San Diego certainly has a wonderful arts community.

We enjoyed the whole evening's program. Truly fantastic dancing, choreography, music, lighting ... All exceptional. The dancers were amazing, the live pianos music was moving and inspirational too! Our favorite works were "this Bitter Earth" by Christopher Wheeldon and "Hallelujah Junction" by Peter Martins, tho we loved all the dances on the program. New York City certain raise the bar on dance performances! We look forward to them returning to San Diego soon! Thank you all that made this program possible!

A wonderful program - with excellent performances by dancers and musicians alike. Each piece was a gem, and all beautifully interpreted.

It has been many years since I've had the opportunity to see the New York City Ballet perform Balanchine's classic, Coppelia, but I was not disappointed in the least with the July 17th performance at SPAC. Everything about it was perfect, from the dancing to the costumes, make-up & set designs, to the live orchestra music. If SPAC is looking for ways to increase attendance at their summer NYC Ballet performances, they need go no further than to present delightful story ballets like Coppelia. The night I attended (& brought 2 friends) the audience was filled with families including many aspiring ballerinas. But remember, ALL these children are the future audiences for SPAC and for NYCB. Encourage their continued attendance by offering more classics of this style and caliber.

35 years ago, as an 8-year-old, I attended the premiere of Balanchine's Coppelia at SPAC. I relived that magical experience when I took my daughter and her friend to see a reprise of this whimsical story ballet at SPAC this year. I always enjoy any performance by the NYCB, and this was no exception. Megan Fairchild was an infectious Swanilda - her amazing footwork and charming stage presence kept this fan and 2 young children captivated through all 3 acts. Aside from some shaky ensemble work, the ballet was a testament to the beautiful grace and strength of NYCB dancers.

On a warm Thursday afternoon, I was treated to a very pleasurable and entertaining performance of the New York City Ballet.. The performance was in 4 parts, each with its own unique costuming and choreography. As it unfolded, there was increasing delight for the eyes, ears and other senses as the dancers displayed their skills, ever working together with fluid movements, timed to the eloquent music. Each succeeding part seemed to add to the total a measure of delight, ending in the crescendo of the 4th part. My mind was filled with wonderful memories on the ride home.

The ballet was beautiful and magical!!! This ballet is one children and adults both love and enjoy!!! I could watch it 10 more times!!!! Wonderful performances by all the dancers.

The performers were all stellar. Witnessing this ballet in the Saratoga Performing Arts Center was a completely wonderful experience in every way. The weather was perfect and the breeze that swept through the amphitheatre was so refreshing. The dancers were outstanding and simply brought tears to my eyes with the expression with which they danced. The costumes literally shimmered in the light, particularly the village scenes. I've not seem more breathtaking sets! Everything came together to produce a completely delightful and fulfilling experience of Copelia. Thank you NYC Ballet!!

Watching the NYCB is just simply awe-inspiring. Whether you have ever been a ballet dancer or not, this is a show not to be missed! Very enjoyable and beautiful, it made for a lovely afternoon out!
