Kansas City Ballet Presents “PULSE” (5/14-5/23)

The evening features three extraordinary works that showcase the full range of what ballet can be — classic, contemporary, and completely alive.

George Balanchine’s The Four Temperaments explores the depths of human nature through striking modernist choreography set to Paul Hindemith’s dynamic score, highlighting precision, strength, and artistry. Jerome Robbins’ Glass Pieces electrifies the stage with hypnotic rhythms, transforming Philip Glass’ iconic music into a kinetic visual feast. Completing the program, don’t miss the bold and imaginative world premiere work by Melissa Hough, blending emotional depth, striking movement, and innovative storytelling.

PULSE celebrates the diversity, vitality, and excitement of contemporary ballet.
