Pop goes the ballet on September 22, when New York City Ballet premieres Peter Martins’s Ocean’s Kingdom, featuring Paul McCartney’s first-ever ballet score and Stella McCartney’s debut collection of theater costumes. The romantic libretto, also penned by Sir Paul, centers on the havoc that ensues when an ocean princess falls for the brother of an earth king.
