Signs is a contemporary ballet choreographed by Gianna Reisen, set to the hypnotic and rhythmic music of Philip Glass. Originally created for the School of American Ballet’s workshop performances, it was later added to New York City Ballet’s official repertory, where it has captivated audiences with its fluid movement and ensemble energy.

Signs stands out for its elegant simplicity and modern sensibility. It highlights the strength of contemporary ballet, balancing athleticism and artistry, and offering a fresh perspective on how dancers can communicate both individually and as a group. Audiences are drawn into its rhythmic patterns, subtle gestures, and the sense of unity that builds throughout the piece.

A dynamically charged, abstract work, Red Angels highlights the power and athleticism of its four dancers through bold choreography, intense lighting, and a riveting score for electric violin.

Created for New York City Ballet’s Diamond Project in 1994, Red Angels was the first work created for NYCB by the late choreographer Ulysses Dove. An abstract work for four dancers, Red Angels is set to Richard Einhorn’s "Maxwell’s Demon", a solo for electric violin performed by innovative American violinist Mary Rowell.

Performed with an onstage cellist, A Suite of Dances is a solo tour de force for a male dancer that is at once witty and pensive.

Towards the end of his life, Jerome Robbins was especially inspired by his love for Bach’s music, and he choreographed three of his late works to Bach. A Suite of Dances is set to the Six Suites for Solo Cello, composed when Bach served as Kappellmeister in Cöthen and which cover a broad range of emotional territory. In the early 1990s, when Mikhail Baryshnikov expressed interest in working with Robbins again, the choreographer called to say he had "an idea for a little dance." This charming, naturalistic ballet was the result. In it, the solo dancer and cellist act as partners, playing off each other with easy-going camaraderie.

One of the most buzzed about premieres of 2017, The Times Are Racing is a sneaker ballet that sees its dancers in streetwear designed by Opening Ceremony, drawing inspiration from a variety of dance styles while matching Dan Deacon’s electronic score with youthful impulse and vigor.

Justin Peck’s The Times Are Racing is set to the last four tracks of Dan Deacon’s expansive 2012 album, America. The ballet for 20 dancers is Peck’s second collaboration with fashion designer Humberto Leon of Opening Ceremony, following New Blood, which premiered at NYCB’s 2015 Fall Gala. The lighting is by Peck’s frequent collaborator Brandon Stirling Baker.
