Today highly regarded for its unsurpassed technique, the New York City Ballet is the world's best, but to reach to this position a lot of hard work and faith was put into it. Kirstein and Balanchine formed Ballet Society, for Music and Drama, and showcased their new company at New York's City Center. They had not stopped dreaming. After seeing them perform Morton Blum, then chairman of City Center's Finance Committee suggested that ensemble be transferred into a New York City Ballet. Since then there has been no looking back. Jerome Robins joined the company as the Assistant Artistic Director. The Company now performs for 23 weeks of the year in the New York Theater. New York City Ballet, performed at the opening of the theater on April 24, 1964, and has since been its resident ballet company. The annual summer home of New York City Ballet since 1966 is the The Saratoga Performing Arts Center. The company has toured Europe Australia, Brazil, Japan, Sicily, South Korea, Taiwan, Russia and Canada.

George Balanchine and Lincoln Kirstein shaped the history of 20th century dance. Under the counsel of Peter Martins, New York City Ballet remains devoted to Balanchine's ideals.
Show Biography - New York City Ballet
The idea of New York City Ballet germinated in Lincoln Kirstein's mind and when he met George Balanchine in London in 1933, Kirstein knew he had found the right person for his dream. He visualized young American dancers being trained and schooled under the guidance of the world's greatest ballet masters to perform a new, modern repertory in America itself.
Balanchine accepted Kirstein's invitation to come to America to start the school which would be the incubator of their American ballet. But it was not a smooth walk. During the initial years there were many hiccups. Rain played spoilsport and the the school's first performance was postponed. To add to it, the initial tour of the newly-formed American Ballet could not materialize. Those were difficult days and then World War II happened, everything went haywire. Kirstein served in the Army and Balanchine joined the Ballet Russe de Monte Carlo as choreographer. During the gloomy period, the school existed and it was the only indication that the ballet dream was alive. One can easily say that these two men pulled up the school from despair and oblivion.
