New Jersey Ballet presents Icons of American Ballet—a vibrant program celebrating groundbreaking choreographers who have shaped the landscape of American dance. The performance opens with George Balanchine’s iconic Serenade, a poetic and sweeping work set to Tchaikovsky’s Serenade for Strings. Jerome Robbins’ In the Night follows, a tender and emotionally rich ballet set to four nocturnes by Chopin, where three couples explore the many shades of romantic relationships beneath a starlit sky. The program concludes with Twyla Tharp’s stylish and witty Nine Sinatra Songs, where couples dance through the complexities of love to the timeless voice of Frank Sinatra. Together, these three works offer an unforgettable afternoon of elegance, emotion, and innovation.
