Performances
Classical ballet company
Svendborg BalletTeater produces professional ballet performances every year, which premiere in Svendborg and then go on tour.
We produce professional ballet performances of a high international standard, specifically made for smaller and more unconventional stages, which would otherwise never be visited by professional classical ballet performances – something no other Nordic ballet companies have done before.

Shades of light
Look forward to a moving and contrasting evening of ballet in two acts, which celebrates the many facets of life through three works. The first act opens with classical charm and pure dancing joy in an elegant pas de trois based on Bournonville's iconic steps, staged by Dinna Bjørn.
Following is Petr Zuska’s Maria’s Dream – a humorous and surreal journey into the dreams of the ballerina Maria Taglioni, where, with playfulness and poetry, she dances free from the expectations of time.
