ABT features more of an emphasis on story ballets than the New York City Ballet—Coppelia, Swan Lake, Sleeping Beauty—and tends to produce more bravura stars than NYCB (where the emphasis is on ensemble work). Currently, the company has a raft of Latino leapers who are thrilling audiences with the artistry and sheer physical prowess of their dancing.
