Aficionados of classic dance will want to check out the highly accomplished offerings of the Oregon Ballet Theatre whose repertoire includes pieces from some of the world's most celebrated choreographers. From Balanchine to Broadway, the OBT has something to delight visitors of all ages and tastes. Every summer the company offers its free OBT Exposed event in which they set up an outdoor rehearsal space to prepare for their opening performance.
Spectators can enjoy a picnic, watch the dancers rehearse, and get a rare behind-the-scenes look at what goes into creating a ballet. Season subscribers can also take advantage of the Studio Rehearsal program, which provides historical and artistic information about an upcoming production and exclusive access to company rehearsals. An active outreach program including lectures, artistic workshops, and student activities provides fun, educational opportunities for both adults and children.
