    Ballet West celebrates the 100th anniversary of the company that brought together some of the greatest composers, artists, choreographers and librettists ever assembled: the famed Ballets Russes. The Treasures of the Ballets Russes is an electrifying production of three works featuring the Utah premiere of George Balanchine's 'The Prodigal Son,' the exciting and moving biblical parable danced to the music of Sergei Prokofiev. The program also includes the Ballet West premiere of Bronislava Nijinska's chic and funny look at the 1920s flapper set, 'Les Biches,' set to a score by Francis Poulenc, as well as a revival of the ballet that set Paris on fire in 1909, the fabulous 'Polovetsian Dances' from Alexandre Borodin's opera, Prince Igor.
