Balanchine's first American ballet features dancers in pale blue gowns floating across a deep blue background to Tchaikovsky's Serenade for Strings in C. When asked what Serenade is about, Balanchine said that it is just "a dance in the moonlight." An exquisite one, indeed.
Slaughter on Tenth Avenue
Las Vegas Premiere!
From the Rodgers & Hart comedy On Your Toes, this ballet-within-a-Broadway-musical follows a vampy love triangle between a handsome American Hoofer, a beautiful showgirl and a jealous Russian danseur with deadly connections to the Mob.
