Description

In the short time since its founding in 1963, the Boston Ballet repertory group has gone on to become one of the best ballet troupes in the United States and arguably the world on the international stage. The group was founded by E. Virginia Williams, and was the first professional repertory group in New England. The Boston Ballet really started to make its mark in the early 1980s, beginning in 1979 when the group opened the Nervi Festival in Italy. From there they became the first group to preform in the People's Republic of China in 1980, and made their first appearance in London with a performance of Swan Lake in 1981. By 1990, the companies international promise was felt as they continue that tradition by traveling around the globe and holding local performances at the Wang Center for the Performing Arts.
