Acting as agent, the Minnesota Ballet works directly with presenters. This approach generates direct communications with the presenter and allows for a maximum experience for the host community. We work to meet the community’s needs, both educationally and artistically.

The Minnesota Ballet has the proven capacity to stage full-scale ballets such as The Nutcracker and Coppélia, in the host community, using local dance students and teacher volunteers for these productions.

Ballet fees can range from $5,000 to $30,000.

The Ballet’s new production of Sleeping Beauty, set in medieval Europe, is available for tours.

The Minnesota Ballet is often invited back to the communities where we have performed, and we guarantee a positive experience. Upon request, the Ballet will gladly supply a list of references from former tours.

The Minnesota Ballet realizes that theaters may not be able to meet all our needs, and we are willing to discuss how to work around these problem areas. Contact Ken Pogin, Production Manager, for basic theater, stage, lighting, sound, and crew requirements. The technical requirements, for theaters to use as a guide, are posted on our Web site under Technical.
