This Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, American Ballet Theatre will be performing Giselle to kick-off Northrop’s Grand Reopening weekend.

This truly is a once in a lifetime experience! For the past three years, Northrop has been under renovation. This Friday, we open our doors to the public for the first time in three years, to a beautifully revitalized and energized building. With new collaborative spaces, gorgeous performance halls, and restored grandeur, Northrop will take your breath away. (For a sneak peek of the new spaces, visit our website here.) What better way to celebrate than with American Ballet Theatre?
Need more of a reason? ABT is one of the best dance companies in the WORLD, with decades of history, classical repertoire, beautiful dancers, and amazing leadership. ‘Nuff said.

The ABT dancers are some of the most exquisite in the world, and we’re lucky enough to have them here at Northrop! Casting for each night in the roles of Giselle and Albrecht are as follows:
