Behind the Scenes with Ib Andersen: "All Balanchine" & "Topia"
Thank you for being such an instrumental part of Ballet Arizona’s 2016-2017 season. Together we’ve traveled the world - from India to Verona to Rio. We are thrilled to conclude our season at Desert Botanical Garden this May with "Topia" and hope to see you at "All Balanchine" this week.

Behind The Scenes: Costume Director Leonor Texidor
In the evening I volunteered to do the costumes for a street theater group, and there I learned how to make something out of nothing and how to observe the way fabrics move, and how the director and the actors work.

Dancer's Story - Annier Navarro
I had a neighbor in Cuba who lived in AZ for a while. His only description of Arizona was “hot”. I had no idea just how beautiful Arizona would be with or without its summer heat. I was unprepared for everything it holds.

Behind the Scenes with Ib Andersen: "All Balanchine"
I continue to do a Balanchine program each year because, in my opinion, he is the number one choreographer that we have ever seen in ballet. There is no one like him; no one is as diverse as him and I don’t think there ever will be.

Beyond Ballet
Ballet is a passion first, then a discipline. And because of this discipline, ballet teaches you as much about life skills as dance steps. At one point, you emotionally change. You physically change. And you continue to change in ways that make you connect with your body and learn how to use your energy correctly.

An Evening with Today's Masters
Breathing life into original choreography requires a gift of artistry, vision and execution, all within the realm of infinite patience. No one does this better than our Artistic Director Ib Andersen!
