    On April 25th at 7pm and April 26th at 1:30pm, Ballet Rhode Island makes its first-ever appearance at Bristol Community College, bringing the contemporary ballet program Pure Dance to the Margaret L. Jackson Arts Center! Tickets here. Striking contrast and kinetic beauty define Pure Dance, a bold celebration of what ballet can be today - athletic, expressive, and deeply human. Designed for both first-time dancegoers and seasoned audiences, the program offers a dynamic journey through contemporary ballet that highlights the moving body as both instrument and storyteller. From the effervescent brilliance of George Balanchine’s Allegro Brillante, to the meditative intimacy of Christopher Wheeldon’s Liturgy, to the raw contemporary pulse of Yury Yanowsky’s Fading Creatures, Pure Dance reveals ballet as an art form that is alive, relevant, and accessible. Set to gorgeous music and performed by Ballet RI’s professional artists, this unforgettable experience is just a short drive away, and an open invitation to come along for the ride. Following each performance, audiences are invited to stay for a Meet the Ballerina experience, offering a rare opportunity to connect directly with the artists, ask questions, and gain insight into the creative process behind the performance.
