Ballet Central

Following a highly successful tour in 2024, Ballet Central returns in 2025 with a brand-new company of dancers and a revitalising programme of classical ballet and contemporary dance.

Ballet Central is delighted to announce the first piece in the 2025 summer programme as Frederick Ashton’s majestic Foyer de Danse. Staged for the first time in over 90 years, the ballet brings Edgar Degas paintings to life and has been recreated by the Ashton Foundation. In contrast, Ballet Central presents contemporary works by Dickson Mbi and Thick and Tight. Vastly energetic, Mbi takes influence from his success as a Hip Hop dancer and his signature popping style. Thick and Tight’s theatrical work will combine dance, theatre and mime, whilst commenting on social and political current affairs. The final instalment in this vibrant new programme is Kristen McNally’s modern ballet, sure to charm audiences and showcase the talent of Central School of Ballet’s graduating cohort of 2025.
