BalletX (Contemporary Ballet)

BalletX produces original choreography that expands the vocabulary of classical dance for all audiences. As Philadelphia’s premier contemporary ballet company, BalletX unites distinguished choreographers with an outstanding company of world-class dancers to forge new works of athleticism, emotion and grace.

Founded in 2005 by Christine Cox and Matthew Neenan, and now under the direction of Cox as artistic and executive director, BalletX challenges the boundaries of classical ballet by encouraging formal experimentation while preserving rigorous technique. The company is committed to producing new works of the highest quality and integrity that bring the combined visions of choreographers and dancers to life and cultivate in audiences a collective appetite for bold, new dance.

While at the Weis Center, BalletX will perform works by Dwight Rhoden: We The People • Matthew Neenan: Mapping Out a Sky.

Tickets available at Bucknell.edu/BoxOffice beginning Friday, Aug. 27 at 10 a.m.
