Ellison Ballet presents its 20th Anniversary Celebration performances May 10-11 at the Ailey Citigroup Theater — a breathtaking celebration of passion, artistry, and excellence.
Join us as the award-winning students of the Professional Training Program take the stage alongside graduates and guest artists who are now performing with leading ballet companies around the world, including Elisabeth Beyer and Andrii Ishchuk from American Ballet Theatre, Michael Paradiso and Risa Mochizuki from New Jersey Ballet, Kouadio Davis from Dance Theatre of Harlem, and Melissa Chapski from Oregon Ballet Theatre!
The program features a stunning repertory including pas de deuxs from Swan Lake, George Balanchine’s Rubies, Flames of Paris, and other celebrated works alongside original choreography by Robert Garland (Artistic Director of Dance Theatre of Harlem), Barry Kerollis, Juan Rodriguez, Ashley Carter, Ursula Verduzco, and Jolanta Valeikaite. Together, these dancers and artists honor two decades of growth, dedication, and achievement at Ellison Ballet.
