Children and Families: Between the Acts with New York Theatre Ballet

Published: February 14, 2025; Aithor: Julia Sonrisa

When: February 16, 2025

Join New York Theatre Ballet for family “Between the Acts” events on Sunday afternoons starting February 9. These 1-hour beginner-friendly dance movement classes for ages 5-11, also include conversations about the history of dance, costumes, and what it takes to be a professional dancer. No previous dance experience or dance attire is necessary. We welcome anyone with an interest in dance to attend!

New York Theatre Ballet’s Between the Acts (BTA) program is designed to build multigenerational new-to-dance audiences through free and informal talks, workshops, and performances hosted in public “third spaces.” BTA events serve as an accessible initial touchpoint to dance, designed to strip down the “insider” language and often “elitist” perception of classical ballet to make someone feel welcome in a theater.

Location: 14th Street Y

Time: 3:00 pm EST
