About Ballet Central

This event will go on sale to Friends and Patrons on Tuesday 20th January 12pm, and General Bookers on Tuesday 27th January, 12pm.

Following a widely celebrated 2025 tour, Ballet Central returns in 2026 with a brand-new company of dancers and a revitalising programme of classical ballet and contemporary dance.

Join us to experience the magic of live dance, showcasing the excellence of Central’s next generation of dancers.

The 2026 programme presents one of Kenneth McMillan’s earlier works, Solitaire. Revived for Ballet Central by Lynn Wallis, Solitaire presents a quirky, dreamlike world told through a montage of nine dances, knitted together by Malcolm Arnold’s enigmatic score.

Times Square Ballet, an excerpt from Ashley Page's musical On the Town, is sure to delight audiences with its rhythm, glamour and romance. This hectic night of fun reflects the hustle and bustle of the famous Broadway theatre district during the 1940s.

Two exciting new commissions will take to the stage in this year’s tour, from distinctive choreographers Monique Jonas and Cameron McMillan. These contemporary works showcase the versatility and flair of Ballet Central’s yearly repertoire.
