Boston Ballet presents George Balanchine's Jewels, a full-length ballet in three parts. Presenting a miniature history of classical dance, Jewels references ballet's French origins, Russia's imperial style and Balanchine's own take on the art form. Critically acclaimed since its premiere, each act of Jewels is distinct in both music and mood.

loved the ballet, i've wanted to see that one for years. but that nonsense about picking up the ticket 3 days before the performance was a real deterrent to ever buying ballet tickets again!

So engaging - the ballet, the music, the costumes - all were fantastic. The seats were terrific as well. I would go to this performance again and again. It's nice that each jewel has it's own vibe. I liked diamonds the best. Highly recommend this - great for folks who love the ballet and great way to introduce someone to the ballet because it's like mini ballets, so it never felt long.
