About the work

Pulcinella Variations is a one-act ballet by Justin Peck, set to Igor Stravinsky's Pulcinella Suite, with costumes designed by Tsumori Chisato. The ballet premiered on September 28, 2017, danced by the New York City Ballet, at the David H. Koch Theater.

The choreography of Pulcinella Variations is more classical than other Peck's works, and the costumes were inspired by commedia dell’arte, which was also Stravinsky's inspiration when he wrote the music.
