DANCE THEATRE OF HARLEM
Dance Theatre of Harlem stands as a dynamic force in the ballet world, captivating audiences both nationally and internationally. Their repertoire is a thrilling blend of treasured classics, neoclassical masterpieces by George Balanchine and artistic director Robert Garland, and cutting-edge contemporary works that embody founder Arthur Mitchell’s belief that ballet is for everyone. Through electrifying performances, community engagement, and arts education programs, Dance Theatre of Harlem champions the power of the arts to inspire and empower.
Since its founding in 1969 by Arthur Mitchell and Karel Shook, Dance Theatre of Harlem has been hailed as “one of ballet’s most exciting undertakings” (The New York Times). Inspired by the work of the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Mr. Mitchell established a school to provide Harlem’s youth with the opportunity to explore dance and the allied arts. Now celebrating over fifty-five years of excellence, DTH has evolved into a globally renowned ballet company, setting new standards in the performing arts and leaving an indelible mark on the world stage. Their extraordinary legacy continues to open doors for creative expression and artistic brilliance.
