Every step a vibrant story
Our aim is to make dance accessible to all - from watching a story unfold on stage, to learning dance, and professional ballet training. We aim to reach far and wide with events, and to take you beyond the stage immersing you in the stories that move you.
Coppélia
7 – 22 June 2024
A beautiful, life-like doll and two quarrelling young lovers create comic chaos in this spirited ballet with a twist.
Set in the sun-drenched South Australian town of Hahndorf in the late 19th century, this mischievous story has a distinctly regional atmosphere featuring colourful, endearing characters inspired by history.
Opening Night Magic
A Midsummer Night's Dream
Laura Hidalgo, former Principal Artist and Guest Ballet Mistress, sat down with us to share what goes on in the studio in the lead up to opening night and why it's a special moment for her having played the role of Titania many times in previous Queensland Ballet productions.

Pointe Shoe Appeal
