Boys Class
New for Fall 2022 — New Haven Ballet offers a boys class for Levels 3-6, which allows boys a unique opportunity to experience class together, while focusing on elements of training that prepare them for advanced level work. Special emphasis is placed on building strength, jumping, and bridging gaps to allow them to learn partnering and meet the dynamic demands of men’s dancing.
Free Trial Class in September for new students ages 3-18 years

Don Quixote at the Shubert May 28
New Haven Ballet proudly presents Don Quixote and Symphonic Nonsense at the Shubert Theatre New Haven on Saturday, May 28, at 1:00 p.m. Click Here for Tickets
About the Performance
We invite you to a reimagined Don Quixote set in La Mancha, Spain, circa 1550, with ruffled skirts, snapping fans and waving toreador capes. In Act 1, townspeople gather to shop and visit; three sisters, Quiteria Ana, Quiteria Sofia, and Quiteria Lucia, enjoy meeting up with friends. A wealthy shopkeeper, Gamache, gets chased by baby chicks and a rooster, and toreadors let their capes fly alongside young bulls and calves. One of the toreadors, Basilio, catches the eye of Quiteria Lucia, and a romance blossoms. As the townspeople drift off for siesta, Act 2 allows for dreaming of beautiful fairies. The final act celebrates the marriage of Basilio and Quiteria Lucia.
New Haven Ballet presents former New York City Ballet Soloist, Tom Gold’s whimsical Symphonic Nonsense, featuring music by Woodbury, Connecticut native, Leroy Anderson.
Why Your Support Matters
Small but mighty!
New Haven Ballet is a small community based nonprofit ballet school. We do a lot with very little. That is part of what makes us special.
Ticket sales and tuition do not cover our expenses. Your generosity motivates us to work hard to produce performances and programs, bring the best teachers, offer the best classes and upgrade our facilities. As you will see tonight, when we once again showcase The Nutcracker, Act 1 (Sunday Cast), we also curate amazing films of our performances.
We are constantly striving to improve.
Please help us continue this work so that we may continue to provide community programs, like Shared Ability and DanceAIR, offer the highest caliber training, and superb performances.
