A new season is on the horizon for BalletX, and we’re kicking it off with a party!
Celebrate a new era of BalletX at our Young Patrons Circle Season Launch Party on Thursday, October 15, 5:30pm-8:30pm at the BalletX Studio.
Join BalletX’s community of young professionals for a night of dance, drinks, and new connections. Get an exclusive sneak peek at Loughlan Prior’s Speakeasy, just weeks before its world premiere at Fall Series 2026, then stick around for light bites, a photo booth, and time to mingle with BalletX artists and fellow young patrons.
Whether you’re already part of YPC or joining us for the first time, come get an inside look at BalletX, meet new people, and kick off the season with us!
Best of all? This evening is completely free and open to young professionals ages 21+.
Take a Sneak Peek at Speakeasy
You’ll even get an exclusive preview of Loughlan Prior’s theatrical new work Speakeasy ahead of its world premiere at the Suzanne Roberts Theatre, Nov. 4-15. Inspired by the hidden speakeasies of Prohibition-era Philadelphia, jazz, glamour, and danger flourish in Prior’s thrilling new work. With designs by Emma Kingsbury and an original score by Frank Moon, you’ll get a chance to experience the work up close before its debut.
Until then, take a look inside the studio and see BalletX Dancers April Watson and Jonathan Montepara bring Speakeasy to life in rehearsal:
