Ballet des Amériques is pleased to announce its 4th annual Evenings of Dance. The company opens its home to the public from them to enjoy performances in its white box theater. Avid and novice dance fans alike can take in the dancers’ performance in this intimate dance setting. Ballet des Amériques uses this platform to educate and cultivate dance enthusiasts.

The performance will include classical repertory by Marius Petipa as well as contemporary works by Artistic Director Carole Alexis. Alexis uses this performance series to create new works and restage existing works on the company dancers.

Performances will be January 27, February 24, March 24, and April 28 at 7:00pm at Ballet des Amériques’ home in Port Chester. Tickets for the performance are $20. Email Shirley Rodriguez at to reserve your tickets.

Established in 2011 under the directorship of French-American choreographer Carole Alexis, Ballet des Amériques, as its name implies, inserts itself into the French cultural heritage of the Americas. Composed of classically trained dancers of diverse backgrounds, the young company has already danced the choreography of Carole Alexis in over 50 public performances beginning with its debut at the Festival de Fort-de-France in Martinique in 2011. As the resident dance company of the Tarrytown Music Hall, Ballet des Amériques is building on the success of its Evenings of Dance series to develop a regional dance audience in Westchester and neighboring counties. With its local roots and international orientation, the company is poised to grow its audiences beyond dance connoisseurs to reach those who have never been exposed to this art and especially young people, in conscious fulfillment of the educational function of dance in the spirit of Maurice Béjart.
