Louisville Ballet Tickets

Louisville Ballet Dance Tickets

Louisville Ballet tickets will get you access to an evening at one of Louisville Kentucky’s greatest performing arts events. Founded in 1952, the Louisville Ballet did not enroll students until 1975. Often accompanied by the Louisville Orchestra, performances occur at The Brown Theater, The Kentucky Center and on rare occasions, at The Louisville Palace. The ballet company has attracted famous dancers such as Twyla Tharp and Wendy Whelan, and is the only ballet in the region where Mikhail Baryshnikov has been a performer; he was part of the 1978-79 and 1979-80 seasons. There have been more than sixty world premiere performances, and world-renown choreographers include Sir Frederick Ashton, George Balanchine, Jose Limon and David Parsons. Louisville Ballet tickets will allow you to view a full-length ballet performance of such favorites as Swan Lake, Romeo and Juliet and Don Quixote. During the holiday season, you can catch an always popular performance of The Nutcracker. The ballet company has performed in front of tens of thousands of people to rave reviews. 

An off-shoot of the ballet is their school and training center. The Louisville Ballet Youth Ensemble is the school’s performing group. Alumni of that ensemble have seen great success. Some danced professionally with the New York City Ballet or the Colorado Ballet while some continued their dance education at New York University or The University of Arizona. Many of the students entered professional training programs like the Harid Conservatory and the School of American Ballet. Aspiring dancers can attend the school’s summer camp. The ballet school has touched the lives of more than 20,000 school children with its educational programs.
