American Ballet Theatre's Sylvia tickets

A mythical soap opera full of desire, deception and forbidden romance.

Sylvia is a captivating ballet combining the elegance of classical ballet with elements of folklore and mythology.

The audience will be transported on an epic journey to the splendors of Ancient Greece. Here, in this world of short-tempered gods and fantastical creatures, an unlikely romance unfolds between the regal huntress Sylvia and the handsome but simple shepherd Aminta. As with all great love stories, their bond is put to the test time and time again - in life and in death - but love’s transformative power prevails!

This exciting revival of a rarely staged ballet was first performed in Paris over 150 years ago and has since attracted some of the world’s leading choreographers, including Ivanov, Ashton, Balanchine and Neumeier.

One of the world’s greatest and most distinctive choreographers and a principal architect of 20th-century classical ballet, Frederick Ashton's 1952 revival of Sylvia popularized the work.

Experience this bold retelling of a classic ballet, promising all the passion and humor of Greek myth, tangled love affairs and ballerinas with bows and arrows!
