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.

The Ballet Boys Project
Queensland Ballet is taking the global decline of boys in ballet and dance very seriously and is committed to changing this downward trend and addressing what is potentially a sustainability issue for our artform.
As the first part of The Ballet Boys Project, we are thrilled to offer free weekly classes to boys aged 11 – 14, throughout term 3 (8 July – 9 September) and term 4 (30 September – 2nd December). New students can join anytime.
