Under the direction of Artistic Director and Principal Choreographer Helgi Tomasson, San Francisco Ballet is the oldest professional ballet company in America and has a worldwide reputation for its vast and rich repertory, performed by a virtuoso company. Sadler's Wells is thrilled to welcome San Francisco Ballet to London, where they will present three eclectic programmes over two weeks, performing some of their most popular works of recent years.



Programme A features George Balanchine's iconic large-scale work, Divertimento No. 15, set to Mozart's chamber piece; choreographerEdwaard Liang's abstract ballet Symphonic Dances, set to Rachmaninov's intensely spiritual composition of the same name; andChristopher Wheeldon's uplifting Number Nine, hailed as a "delectable paintbox of a dance" by The San Francisco Chronicle.
