San Francisco Ballet 2026-2027 Season
The San Francisco Ballet 2026-2027 season includes a tour across the Atlantic, world premieres by William Forsythe and Bobbi Jene Smith & Or Schraiber, and classics such as The Nutcracker and The Sleeping Beauty.
Two full-lengths by George Balanchine – Jewels and A Midsummer Night’s Dream – and Sir Kenneth MacMillan’s Manon, as well as works by Hans van Manen, Christopher Wheeldon, Akram Khan, Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui, and Yuri Possokhov round out the year.
“SF Ballet’s 2026–27 season brings together a remarkable constellation of legendary artists—visionaries who have shaped the trajectory of ballet and those who continue to define it today.
I’m especially thrilled to bring Bobbi Jene Smith and Or Schraiber, a creative partnership that is redefining what contemporary choreography can be, to San Francisco. Rooted in risk and reinvention, and with a wide range of stories and emotions captured on stage, this season will serve as a powerful reminder that ballet is ever-evolving—and has never been more vital.”
