American Repertory Ballet

With a distinctive reputation for innovation and individuality, American Repertory Ballet (ARB) is recognized as one of the state’s premier performing arts organizations. Presenting classical repertory alongside new and existing contemporary work, ARB is a founding resident company of the New Brunswick Performing Arts Center while also performing in major venues across New Jersey and beyond.

Our focus includes a continuing investment in new productions, new voices, and an ongoing commitment to fostering the presentation of diverse makers, movement, and modalities in ballet and dance. Essentially we are creating a culture and identity that is exclusively ARB, with the purpose of promoting inclusion, inspiration, and involvement.
