Brandywine Ballet

The Brandywine Ballet Company, a non-profit organization, was founded in l978 by Artistic Director, Donna L. Muzio. The company presents three performance series per year and maintains a growing repertoire enriched annually by the inclusion of new works by nationally recognized choreographers.

The company roster includes student dancers who sign yearly contracts with the company, after acceptance by audition, as well as paid professional guest artists who perform the principal roles of the pieces being performed. Auditions for dancers, ages 11 and older, are held each fall for Senior, Junior, and Apprentice members, and are open to all tri-state area students who qualify technically.

In addition to presenting at least three series of quality productions per year, the Brandywine Ballet Company provides the community with free summer performances, reduced rates to schools and senior citizens groups, summer workshops, and master classes for all the surrounding dance community.

Watch these talented dancers perform in the historic Open Air Theater then stay to watch Longwood's amazing illuminated fountains dance. This performance is weather permitting.

This performance is part of our Classical Concert Series.
