Ballet by George Balanchine
The Zenobia "Pas de Deux" is a ballet made by George Balanchine, subsequently co-founder and founding choreographer of the New York City Ballet for Richard Rodgers's 1936 musical "On Your Toes", in which it was performed under the title "La Princesse Zenobia Ballet". Balanchine parodies such Oriental-style ballets as "Schéhérazade". The City Ballet premiere took place on Tuesday, November 23, 1993, at the New York State Theater, Lincoln Center.
