Step into a bold, electric program that honors our origins and celebrates the vibrant spirit of the community we call home.

George Balanchine’s timeless masterpiece Serenade opens the program with sweeping grace and emotional depth—an audience favorite that has shaped MCB’s artistic heart. Balanchine’s exuberant Tarantella follows, bursting with joy, speed, and virtuosic flair.

At the heart of the program is a powerful new work by Alexei Ratmansky, created in honor of Miami City Ballet’s visionary founder Toby Lerner Ansin. Roses from the South, Three Waltzes for Toby blends classical tradition with fresh, imaginative choreography. This World Premiere is both a tribute and a celebration of legacy, artistry, and the joy of dance.

Rooted in history, alive in the present, and soaring into the future—this is Miami City Ballet at its most radiant.

The World Premiere by Alexei Ratmansky is sponsored by The Ansin Family Foundation in honor of Toby Lerner Ansin’s 85th Birthday.
