Rising award-winning Ballet Black returns to Birmingham Rep

Tickets are on sale for Ballet Black:Heroes featuring If At First by choreographer Sophie Laplane, based on themes of humanity, heroism and self-acceptance. The show will also feature The Waiting Game, choreographed by dancer Mthuthuzeli November.

The theater says the company’s arrival in 2020 has transformed the landscape of British ballet by creating a prominent platform for dancers and artists of African, Caribbean and Asian descent.

The rising company has scooped numerous awards, including Best Dance Production or Performance at the Black British Theater Awards last year and Best Inaugural Medium-Scale Company at the Critics’ Circle National Dance Awards in 2022.

Tickets for Ballet Black:Heroes are on sale at £16.50 and are available from birmingham-rep.co.uk or by calling 0121 236 4455.
