New York Public Library for the Performing Arts

New York City Ballet principal dancer Adrian Danchig-Waring hosts the first evening in a series of Jerome Robbins’ ballet celebrations. Joined by NYCB colleagues and other special guests, Danchig-Waring will screen and discuss rare, historic footage from Robbins’ own dancing career, including Ballet Theater’s “lost” production of Antony Tudor’s Romeo and Juliet, a 1944 performance of the original cast of Fancy Free, plus poignant footage of Robbins’ demonstrating and coaching in New York City Ballet rehearsal studios late in his life.
