Nevada Ballet Theatre Opens 2026-2027 Season with Carmina Burana
Nevada Ballet Theatre is starting its 2026-2027 season with live performances that mix classical works and modern choreography, including Carmina Burana and Balanchine’s Serenade, staged at The Smith Center in Las Vegas from October 2 to 4. The program highlights live orchestral music and singing, along with visually dramatic dance.
Season kickoff: what’s new
The company begins its new season by presenting a program that combines Carmina Burana, a large-scale choral work known for its dramatic music and chorus, with Balanchine’s Serenade, a foundational ballet famous for its musicality and flowing movement. The performances run October 2–4 at The Smith Center in Las Vegas. This marks the start of a planned slate of productions for the season.

Residents of Las Vegas and visitors who attend live theater will be directly affected by the performances. Artists, musicians, and staff involved in the production are also part of the affected group, as are local audiences who may attend multiple shows or purchase season tickets.

Notes and questions to consider
Term explanations: Carmina Burana is a grand, often dramatic chorus and orchestra piece; Balanchine’s Serenade is a classical ballet set to a phonically challenging score by Tchaikovsky. The performances rely on live musicians and singers, which means schedules may shift if there are illness or weather disruptions. If you’re new to ballet or opera elements in dance, you’ll see a blend of spoken or sung components with choreographed movement.
