Mission

Boston Ballet, founded in 1963 by E. Virginia Williams, was the first professional repertory ballet company in New England. Our mission is to bring new levels of excellence to ballet - both on and off stage. We will accomplish this through a process that is inclusive in scope, educational, and creative. Inherent in this mission are several tensions: taking artistic risks while not leaving our audience behind, managing for financial stability while allowing for artistic experimentation, and being sensitive to the community while recognizing that ballet is not a mass art form. Through this mission we will significantly advance ballet as an art form, enrich the cultural life of our community, and create a heightened sense of excitement and reward for those who join us.
