NYCB and it's new season?

What do you think of NYCB dropping many of the Balanchine pieces they are famous for in favor of story ballets more like ABT does? Is it just for the money? To get people into the ballet to see Swan Lake (a recognizable name to non ballet lovers) instead of Apollo?

:O If this is true, that’s very sad. I’m a NYCB lover.

I like having a healthy dose of Balanchine. It’s kind of their thing. On the other hand, every company has to move with the times, and I think they’re trying to snag a new generation.
