From the Nutcracker cast to our friends far and wide: We’re sad that this season brings social divide. A year without Snowflakes and Flowers? That’s tragic! We’...ve figured out how to still bring you some magic! The cast is all dressed up and ready to go So join us from home, and come to the show! Digital access starts at $39 >> https://bit.ly/PNBNutcracker2020 Big thanks to Principal dancer Dylan Wald for this wonderful Nutcracker creation and to the cast, crew and musicians who made this magic happen. Gratitude to our friends at Browne Family Vineyards for supporting The Nutcracker this season.

From one of our Swan Lake full call rehearsal with ABT (@abtofficial) at our historic 890 Broadway studios in 2018.

Natalia Osipova has never done anything halfway. She is a dancer of extremes. Where others may settle for good, or aim for simple greatness, Natalia has other... plans. She is driven to be the best ballet dancer she can possibly be. She is one of the most self-disciplined, hardest working, laser beam focused, minutia-calculating, "do it twelve more times" dancers in the world today. And, the result is mind blowing... Music: "So Many Secrets," "Dramatic Orchestrations," and "Triumphant" by Gavin Luke Born in Moscow, Osipova began formal ballet training at the age of nine. From 1996 to 2004, she studied at the Moscow State Academy of Choreography (The Bolshoi Ballet Academy). From 1995 to 2004 she trained at the Moscow State Academy of Choreography and on graduating entered the corps of the Bolshoi Ballet, where she was promoted to principal in 2010. In 2011 she left the Bolshoi to join the Mikhailovsky Ballet as a principal. Osipova has appeared as a guest artist with companies around the world. In March 2012 she became a principal of American Ballet Theatre, where she created the title role in Alexei Ratmansky’s The Firebird. Her awards include Golden Masks for her performances in In the Upper Room (2008) and La Sylphide (2009), Critics’ Circle National Dance Awards (Best Female Dancer, 2007, 2010 and 2014), Positano Dance Awards (Best Female Dancer, 2008 and 2011) and a Benois de la Danse Award (Best Female Dancer, 2008).

Who’s ready for The Nutcracker?!
