Returning for our first live performances since 2019, New Haven Ballet will perform The Nutcracker at the Shubert Theatre New Haven December 17-19. Audiences will see a slightly older group of dancers on stage, as COVID protocols only allowed those 12-years and older to perform. Audiences will also be treated to two short films at the beginning of Acts 1 and Acts 2, which will feature younger dancers. We look forward to welcoming a live audience to the Shubert next week.

OUR MISSION

To provide the greater New Haven Community with exceptional classical ballet training, performances, and outreach programs, that nurture appreciation of ballet and foster the joy of dance.

On October 31, 2020, NHB’s Board of Directors adopted the following Diversity and Inclusion Statement:

New Haven Ballet celebrates those who aspire to excellence in classical ballet. A culture of creativity is the core of our work and diversity promotes innovation. The arts can provide powerful life-changing experiences that prepare students and impact audiences to lead more successful, meaningful and culturally rich lives. The arts can also prove to be an important platform for social change. At New Haven Ballet we are passionate about creating an inclusive dance environment and performances that promote and value diversity and inclusion. We will continue to strive to increase diversity in age, gender identity, race, sexual orientation, physical or mental ability, ethnicity, and perspective, which will improve and strengthen our work.
