About the event
Eclectic NYCB III offers a diverse evening of ballet, beginning with Jerome Robbins' Opus 19/The Dreamer, a work that has held a prominent place in the repertory since its debut over four decades ago.

The work continues to captivate with its alluring narrative and haunting atmosphere.
Next, Standard Deviation, the first work created for the company by Canadian choreographer Alysa Pires, brings a dynamic fusion of neoclassical and contemporary elements.
