We are now taking applications for this year’s Mentor Programme! 

If you are 13 years or older and a passionate dance student apply now for the opportunity to be personally mentored by a company dancer.

Each season Mentor Students gain an insight on what it’s like to be part of the company by watching company class, rehearsal and spending time backstage.

On Saturday 28 January from 9.00am – 12.00pm The Great RNZB Shoe Sale will take place at our home in The St James Theatre, Wellington.  A range of pointe shoes and canvas flats will be available for purchase.  Our Ballet Mistress, Turid Revfeim, along with one or two of our dancers, will be on hand to assist with fittings.

Did you miss out on a programme at one of our performances of The Merdian Season of The Sleeping Beauty?
