We just released our list of recommended theater plays, contemporary dance shows, ballets, and so on, for the months of July, August and September 2026.
This is a first draft, and it will get richer as new programs are publicized – stay tuned.
The New National Theatre Tokyo has been running the “Ballet for Children” series since 2009. For their fifteenth session, they will be performing from July 23 to July 27 an original 1h30 minutes ballet based on Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale, Story of a Little Mermaid, featuring music from Debussy and Massenet.
From February 5 to February 8, the NNTT proposes his yearly Ballet Coffret. Supported by the Tokyo Symphony Orchestra, the theatre ballet company will perform 3 works, in original choregraphies from the late 1940s, from the 1970s, and from 2000 – so to speak contemporary dance classics, from Balanchine to David Dawson. I have never been disappointed by the NNTT Ballet Coffret, in its classic modernity and diversity.
