City Ballet of San Diego

Rhapsody in Blue

INNOVATION AND IMAGINATION ON STAGE

Innovation and imagination are at the heart of this production of ballets from three contemporary choreographers.  Tickets are available for performances at the Balboa Theatre in Downtown San Diego on March 7–8, 2026, and at the Concert Hall at the California Center for the Arts, Escondido on March 11, 2026.

The Firebird

THE STORY OF A MYSTICAL CREATURE

On May 2nd and 3rd, City Ballet of San Diego closes Season 33 with two ballets that are so representative of the company. An all-new ballet, The Firebird, set by resident choreographer Elizabeth Wistrich embodies the creativity and artistry that exemplifies City Ballet. And as southern California’s largest presenter by ballets choreographed by George Balanchine, City Ballet will add the full-length Who Cares? to the company’s repertoire.
