A Look at "city.ballet." Episode 6

Now that we’ve met each rank of the company, this week’s installment of “city.ballet.” delves into the good stuff: relationships. Apparently, dating at work is pretty common at New York City Ballet. And this episode gives us all the juicy details. FUN FACT: Principal dancers Robert Fairchild and Tiler Peck started dating when they were only […]

Today's Installment of "Robert Fairchild and Tiler Peck are Everywhere"

It’s been a big news week for our favorite New York City Ballet couple, principals Robert Fairchild and Tiler Peck! First, it was announced that Peck will star in Susan Stroman’s new musical, Little Dancer, next fall at Washington, D.C.’s Kennedy Center. Last year we heard that she was workshopping the title role, but we […]

NYCB Does High Fashion, Part Bajillion

Here’s yet another reason to be jealous of New York City Ballet’s talented dancers: These days, it seems like they get to play dress-up in designer duds allllll the time!

The third annual Dance Against Cancer benefit, hosted by the American Cancer Society and produced […]

New York City Ballet has bunches of them—Megan Fairchild and Andrew Veyette, Janie Taylor and Sebastien Marcovici, Teresa Reichlen and Justin Peck, Lauren Lovette and Daniel Ulbricht—but one of the troupe’s cutest pairs is Tiler Peck and Robert Fairchild. Even before they were dating, we wanted to […]

NYCB's Glittery Valentino Celebration

I think I’m still recovering from the glamor overload that was the New York City Ballet gala last night. Since I go to the ballet frequently (rough job, right?), most of the time, arriving at Lincoln Center for an NYCB performance feels like coming home. But last night? It was like landing on some beautiful […]

All in the Family

I love dancing families. Whatever pitfalls may come with training alongside a brother or a sister (or a mother, or a father), there’s something really neat about watching family members work and perform together. They just get each other. And talk about a built-in support system. (Can you tell I’m the only one in my […]
