Oregon Ballet Theatre is dedicated to the vitality of, and access to, world-class ballet performance and training in our region. We are proud to honor and share ballet's rich traditions, yet we also acknowledge that historical and pervasive inequities - racial, gender-based, socio-economic, and more - have shaped the art form for centuries. The exclusivity of ballet's origins has, in other words, resulted in the exclusion of many voices.
