Dance Theatre of Harlem

The Elegance Series is a collection of breathtaking Ballet performances from internationally renowned houses with well-loved Dance Stars. They feature productions by the greatest choreographers that we know today and of course the legacy of the legendary Marius Petipa.

The Dance Theatre of Harlem, America's first outstanding classical ballet company of African-American dancers, started out as a ghetto experiment that quickly reached world-class level. It was created by Arthur Mitchell, a School of American Ballet student who had broken through ballet's colour barrier by becoming the first African-American dancer to join an internationally renowned company, the New York City Ballet.
