Great ballet has the power to stir the spirit without you ever leaving your seat. Kansas City Ballet is proud to present another remarkable season brimming with artistry and athleticism.
 
Feast your eyes on choreographic gems that sing to your soul. Giselle, a tale of eternal love... Balanchine’s Slaughter on Tenth Avenue, tells a comical story of Russian gangsters, sultry strippers and murder... And, Jerome Robbins’ Moves uses movement in silence to propel
emotions throughout an extraordinarily powerful experience.
