New York Theatre Ballet
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
New York Theatre Ballet (or the NYTB) was founded in 1978 by its artistic director, Diana Byer. Dedicated to the principles of the Cecchetti-Diaghilev tradition, the company both reprises classic masterworks and produces original ballets.
The roster of New York Theatre Ballet includes choreographers Frederick Ashton, George Balanchine, Auguste Bournonville, Michel Fokine, John Taras, Antony Tudor, and other legendary artists. The company tours its family and adult programs both nationally and abroad, and has become the most widely seen chamber ballet company in the United States.
