Giselle

In this story of a peasant girl deceived by an aristocrat disguised as a commoner, the emotions of love, betrayal and redemption play out in stunning simplicity. With exquisite sets and costumes, Stanton Welch’s Giselle is one of the most beautiful ever produced.
Forged in Houston
Continuing its tradition of supporting the world’s most respected choreographers, this uplifting program features Jorma Elo’s ONE|end|ONE, Christopher Bruce’s Hush, and a world premiere by Trey McIntyre, who has created more than 100 ballets, many on Houston Ballet dancers.
From Houston to the World
Mark Morris created The Letter V on Houston Ballet to audience and critical acclaim. Aszure Barton’s Angular Momentum was influenced by the city’s architecture and set to a score about the moon landing. Arthur Pita makes his Houston debut with a world premiere created on Company dancers.
Romeo & Juliet
