Next Generation

ONE NIGHT ONLY | MAY 21, 2025 | 7:00PM Next Generation is Boston Ballet's annual one night only performance that empowers talented young dancers to reach for the stars. Featuring Boston Ballet II, Graduate Program artists, and students of Boston Ballet School’s Professional Division at Walnut Hill School for the Arts, this performance showcases a blend of timeless classical ballets and bold new contemporary works. The performance is elevated by live orchestral accompaniment by the Next Generation Orchestra, comprised of young musicians from top youth orchestras and music schools around Boston. Next Generation is underwritten by a generous gift from Donna and Michael Egan. Next Generation is also supported by our media partners WBUR and Boston Magazine.

Boston Ballet School’s Professional Division at Walnut Hill School for the Arts Fall Show

Boston Ballet School’s Professional Division at Walnut Hill School for the Arts proudly presents&nbsp;a Fall Showcase at the Keiter Center for the Arts—an unmissable showcase of technique and creativity!&nbsp;Starting with excerpts from Harald Landers Etudes, one of the most riveting and iconic ballets, the Fall Dance Showcase exemplifies ballet training and celebrates pure classicism. The performance offers a glimpse into the dancers' class routine with barre and center before transitioning into a fabulous showpiece of physical arts. In contrast, a world premiere for the Professional Division students choreographed by Levi Marsman, 2005 Walnut Hill graduate and former member of Alvin Ailey and Complexions, takes the performance into a creative, current, and relevant example of movement and ingenuity that showcases our students' diversity and individuality.
