Artistry and Passion In Motion

Topeka's Ballet Midwest originated in 1977 with the purpose of sharing the art of classical ballet with Topeka and surrounding communities. More than 40 years later, the company's vision remains strong through community education programs and a variety of performances designed to reach different audiences. For the 2019-20 season, Ballet Midwest will present two full-length classical ballets in addition to many other local performances. On December 13-15, enjoy a Topeka tradition and northeast Kansas' longest running Nutcracker Ballet, featuring a cast of 200 local dancers. Ballet Midwest's Board of Directors is currently assessing area health guidelines and making decisions about the remainder of the 2019-20 season, as well as looking ahead to 2020-21. We look forward to new and creative ways to keep dancing, because we all can use a little more dance these days!
