Posters outside advertised more dance programs this year: an evening of works performed by principals and soloists of the New York City Ballet; works by the French choreographer, Roland Petit; a dance piece, Shanghai Tango, by the city's contemporary dance troupe, directed by China's first transsexual, Jin Xing; the Teatro alla Scala Ballet, presenting A Midsummer Night's Dream; and then a production of the perennial end-of-year ballet, The Nutcracker.
