“The works in Beyond the Surface are by choreographers who are setting the trends in dance. Their works are presented all over the world, and I’m very excited to share them with Charlotte audiences. Dance can make you feel something emotionally that doesn’t need to be explained — just felt.” -Artistic Director, Alejandro Cerrudo for SouthPark Magazine's 2024 Fall Arts Preview Our fall performance series, Beyond the Surface, kicks off our 2024/2025 Season with three dynamic and emotionally evoking works of contemporary dance. We will be welcoming returning choreographers Mthuthuzeli November and Jennifer Archibald, as well as presenting a brand new work from the talented Omar Román De Jesús. Beyond the Surface will take place at our Center for Dance from October 4-26.

On May 16, InReach NC presented their end of year performance right here at Charlotte Ballet! These awesome dancers showed off their moves that they have been practicing in their classes throughout the year. A big shout-out to Charlotte Ballet Teaching Artist Gretchen Jax for leading such a fun warm-up and group exercise for these movers! InReach’s vision is to empower people they support to realize that their goals, aspirations, and dreams are within reach, and that is certainly a vision we saw in action here. We are honored to be part of such an inspiring program. To learn more about InReach and all that they offer for the community, visit www.inreachnc.org/
