Kansas City Ballet

Kansas City Ballet has earned the respect of the national dance community and is a source of pride for our city and region. The versatility and depth of Kansas City Ballet takes center stage each year as the company continues to hone its reputation as one of the best mid-sized ballet organizations in the nation. Kansas City Ballet presents three repertory performances each year that pay homage to established masters of ballet while reaching out to explore contemporary works by emerging choreographers. Kansas City Ballet is one of the few ballet companies of mid-sized cities that has the ability to cover the classics with aplomb while challenging audiences with newer works. Kansas City Ballet's repertory season includes 18 performances (six each season) with fall, winter and spring seasons at the Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts. The company presents The Nutcracker at the Kauffman Center throughout the month of December. For ticket information contact KC Ballet box office at 816-931-2232 or e-mail boxoffice@kcballet.org.
