The Beauty of Ballet

The Beauty of Ballet is SAB’s free Lecture-Demonstration program which is open to the public and presented at NYC neighborhood venues for family audiences in Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx and Harlem.  This hour-long presentation is led by SAB faculty member Katrina Killian and features advanced SAB students. Audiences are offered a sneak-peek inside SAB’s classroom to witness how students train to become professional dancers. The program concludes with excerpts from famous ballets including The Nutcracker, Swan Lake and Stars and Stripes – performed by our students to live music. Recommended for ages 4 and above, The Beauty of Ballet is a wonderful introduction to the art of ballet.

FREE admission to all locations.  Seating is first-come, first-served.
El programa será en inglés.

The 2020 Beauty of Ballet performance schedule is included below.  Check the venue web sites for more information.

Important Note: Out of an abundance of caution for the safety of our audience, the School of American Ballet has made the decision to cancel its March 15 presentation of “The Beauty of Ballet” at Hostos Center for the Arts and Culture. We look forward to bringing “The Beauty of Ballet” back to the Bronx in 2021.
