Rub elbows with the American Repertory Ballet dancers seen on stage at the Meet the Company event.
Meet the Company is scheduled to kick off ARB’s monthly On Pointe Enrichment Series 12 p.m. on Sept. 13 at Princeton Ballet School, 301 North Harrison Street, Princeton. The school is located above McCaffrey’s supermarket.
On Pointe events are usually held at 5:15 p.m. This is a special lunch-hour On Pointe in light of the beginning of Yom Kippur the evening of Sept. 13.
This year’s “Meet the Company” includes discussions of the upcoming season along with a glimpse of what the company has in store for audiences, including pieces by Mary Barton and guest choreographer Kirk Peterson. ARB dancers are set to perform excerpts of select repertory.
ARB created the On Pointe series as part of the organization’s mission to make ballet more accessible to the community. Through guest speakers, lecture demonstrations, company performance previews, and panel discussions, the series strives to create community engagement within the world of dance and give the public an inside look at ARB’s work.
