Au-Rene Theater at the Broward Center, 201 SW 5th Avenue, 33312 Fort Lauderdale Directions
Sun Oct 25 2026 18:30
Miami City Ballet opens its 26/27 Season with a sparkling mixed bill that weaves together classical brilliance, jazzy elegance, and an electrifying world premiere! The program kicks off with George Balanchine's Allegro Brillante-a kinetic burst of technical precision and youthful exuberance that defined his neoclassical style. Then follows a world premiere by former MCB Principal Dancer Patricia Delgado, crafted in collaboration with award-winning composer and songwriter Emily Estefan. This work marks a homecoming for both artists, whose shared artistic roots in Miami have blossomed into careers defined by their highly tuned musicality. Ending the evening with a bang, the company premiere of Jerome Robbins' seminal work Opus Jazz infuses the improvisational spirit of American jazz into classic ballet vocabulary. Join us for a curated evening that honors ballet's lineage while embracing the thrill of new artistic synergy.
