The origins of Boulder Ballet began with the Ballet Arts Studios, founded in Denver and Boulder by former American Ballet Theatre dancer Larry Boyette in the 1970s. In 1982 the Boulder studio was taken over by Barbara Demaree and Wanda Tierney. They started the first performing company, originally known as Boulder City Ballet. In 1995, the company and school became known as Boulder Ballet.Our rich history includes bringing classic, contemporary, and uniquely theatrical ballet to venues that range from Estes Park to Highlands Ranch. Boulder Ballet currently performs in Macky Auditorium, the Dairy ARTS Center, and outdoor amphitheaters throughout the Denver-metro area for our free summertime Ballet in the Park events.Since its founding, the professional company has been influenced by several notable dancers, including Milenko Banovich (Zagreb Ballet), Robin Haig (Royal Ballet), and John Prinz (American Ballet Theatre). Artistic Director Ana Claire is building on this strong tradition of artistic excellence through innovation, programmatic growth, and attention to quality. Boulder Ballet now looks to an exciting future including additional collaborations with the Boulder Philharmonic Orchestra and the Longmont Symphony, new choreographic explorations, new class offerings at the Boulder Ballet School and additional outreach programming.
