Rebecca Kelly Ballet
Strengthening Communities through Dance
Rebecca Kelly Ballet, based in New York City, has been artists-in-residence for 28 seasons in many communities of the North Country, including Lake Placid, Potsdam, Plattsburgh, North Creek, and Au Sable Forks. The Company is best known for performances of choreographer Rebecca Kelly’s original ballets inspired by the Adirondacks, for developing outreach programs tailored for each community it serves, and for the popular 2-week Onstage Youth Performance program at the Lake Placid Center for Arts. RKB combines technical training, individualized coaching and performance under the direction of a master choreographer, in a broad exposure to dance from ballet to Broadway.
