The sweeping vistas and grand temples of mystical India set the stage for this beloved 19th century ballet depicting eternal love and godly revenge. In “sublime classical purity” (Los Angeles Times) ABT’s company of dancers mesmerize as the doomed temple dancer, Nikiya, the warrior who betrays her, Solor, and her archrival in love, Gamzatti.
