Ballet Arizona is ran under the artistic direction of Mary Beth Cabana and is increasingly becoming a versatile and highly-regarded dance company in the US. Many of its signature dancers have even worked with top ballet organizations including the American Ballet Theatre, New York City Ballet, San Francisco Ballet, Ballet West, Alvin Ailey, Boston Ballet, and Dance Theatre of Harlem.

“Ballet Tucson’s popularity continues to grow and enables the company to claim its place as the premier dance company in Tucson and Southern Arizona.”

Tucson locals can be on the look out for historic classics as well as innovative contemporary pieces in Ballet Tucson’s agenda. The up and coming ballet also features an “exceptional” children’s company of more than 100 students who perform with the professional dancers in such full-length productions as The Nutcracker, Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty and A Midsummer Night’s Dream (May 22 and 23, 2010).
