Description
Beginning with its first performance over 52 years ago, NBT continues to bring the Las Vegas community closer to the art form of dance. A 501(c)(3) non-profit performing arts organization and the largest professional ballet company and dance Academy in the state, NBT has enriched the lives of the people of Las Vegas through its professional main stage productions, an affiliated Academy offering the highest level of dance training, and outstanding Community Education programs for underserved youth. As the Resident Ballet Company of The Smith Center for the Performing Arts, NBT remains at the heart of Las Vegas’ cultural landscape.
With a solid focus on dance education, a versatile Company of professional dancers and a growing repertoire, NBT stands as one of the city’s most beloved community treasures. Consistently seeking to engage new audiences and cultivate its national identity, unique dance experiences like A Choreographers’ Showcase (ACS), its collaboration with Cirque du Soleil that ran for over a decade, have created avenues of growth for local artists while enriching Las Vegas’ cultural community with new and original dance works each year.
With an eye on the future, and a reverence for its past, NBT looks ahead to the next 50 years and the continuation of presenting outstanding professional ballet and dance productions to the Las Vegas community.
