The Joffrey Ballet's Anna Karenina at Dorothy Chandler Pavilion at the Los Angeles Music Center

One of the premier dance companies in the world today, The Joffrey Ballet boasts a reputation for boundary-breaking performances for more than 65 years. The company’s blockbuster, Anna Karenina, won the 2019 “Oscars of Dance” Benois de la Danse International Prize for Best Choreography. Love is all-consuming for the beautiful but married Anna, who, in the pursuit of passion, finds herself caught in a life-changing affair with the dashing Count Vronsky. Set in late 19th-century Imperial Russia, this adaptation unravels the profound power, desire and possession that shapes Leo Tolstoy’s epic novel. A breathtaking cinematic production with stunning costume design and captivating choreography, this famed psychological drama—set to an original composition—makes its debut at The Music Center’s Dorothy Chandler Pavilion.
