See the ballet stars of tomorrow! American Ballet Theatre Studio Company, a classical ensemble of 12 dancers of outstanding potential (ages 17-20), serves as the crucial vehicle for transitioning from student to professional performer. Nearly 80% of the current dancers in American Ballet Theatre began their careers in ABT Studio Company, including 13 Soloists and 9 Principal Dancers.

Performances will feature mixed repertoire, including newly commissioned works by Amy Hall Garner, Lauren Lovette, and Jessica Lang. Other repertoire for the 2019-2020 season includes Sunshine by Larry Keigwin, Grey Verses by Brendan Saye, and excerpts from Antony Tudor's The Leaves are Fading, August Bournonville's Kermesse in Bruges, and La Bayadère.

Tickets are $35 and can be purchased by visiting www.tututix.com/abtstudiocompany.

 "ABT Studio Company plays out charmingly as a fresh and fleet display of young dancers...accomplished classicists and comradely artists." -The Wall Street Journal

She holds the hand of the arm raised above the dancer’s head with one arm and her back arm is extended and she is smiling at the student.
