Adrian Danchig-Waring Departs New York City Ballet Following Severe Medical Crisis

Principal dancer Adrian Danchig-Waring is leaving New York City Ballet after a severe health crisis in late 2024. A herniated disk led to an epidural injection, which triggered a bacterial infection causing him to lose the ability to walk, spike a fever, and lose 25 pounds. He spent two months without a clear diagnosis before eventually recovering. This departure marks the end of his tenure as a principal dancer, following a career already marked by two previous career-ending injuries.
