Theatre Ballet interprets classical and contemporary pieces with intensity and sensitivity. The company's repertoire represents a variety of styles, including productions of ballet classics like Romeo and Juliet, Coppelia, and Petrushika as well as contemporary pieces choreographed for the ensemble. Traditional pas de deux are also presented from Flouer Festival, le Corsaire, Don Quixote, Giselle, Paquita, and Swan Lake, among others.

Headed by artistic directors who have gained a wealth of experience with some of the world's finest professional ballets, Theatre Ballet has performed in South Africa and regularly tours throughout the western United States giving concerts, presenting lecture demonstrations, and teaching workshops.

"This troupe, guided by resourceful choreographers, sustains a disciplined stamina which helps them deliver the program in high spirits. It is also, every minute of it, thoroughly charming."
