In 1952, West Australian Ballet was established by Madame Kira Bousloff – the first professional ballet company formed in Australia that is still in existence today.
Since its formation West Australian Ballet has developed an impressive reputation for superior classical and contemporary ballet, and contemporary dance of the highest level. Its repertoire continues to develop steadily; classical ballet forming the foundation, combined with a distinct contemporary outlook on the art form. West Australian Ballet stages everything from full length classical ballets, narrative ballets and shorter works, and encompasses a variety of choreographic styles.
The Company is based in Perth and resides at the West Australian Ballet Centre in Maylands. At present the Company consists of 41 full-time dancers. West Australian Ballet offers an extensive program of dance throughout the year, with five major seasons in Perth, one at The Quarry Amphitheatre in City Beach, three at His Majesty’s Theatre, and one at the State Theatre Centre of WA. West Australian Ballet also offers choreographic workshops, adult dance classes, an extensive education program and regularly tours nationally and regionally throughout Western Australia.
West Australian Ballet is the only dance company in the state that has an official partnership with its state symphony orchestra; the West Australian Symphony Orchestra.
