American Repertory Ballet will be featured guest performers at Rider University's annual spring performance.  American Repertory Ballet's Princeton Ballet School is closely affiliated with Rider University's dance program, offering classes to their students for credit.

This Rider University affiliation with American Repertory Ballet is further represented in Rider Dances by the choreography Rider dance students will be performing.  The following ARB/Princeton Ballet School artists are creating pieces on Rider dance students: Mary Barton, ARB Resident Choreographer and long-time Princeton Ballet School faculty member; Christine Chen, ARB Managing Director and former professional dancer; Jennifer Gladney, former ARB dancer, former Rider dance student, and current faculty member at Princeton Ballet School; and Angela Cusumano, Princeton Ballet School faculty member and DANCE POWER teaching artist.

The Rider University/Princeton Ballet School Program is a unique partnership that allows Rider University dance majors and minors to complete their studio course requirements at the Princeton Ballet School while earning an undergraduate degree in Fine and Performing Arts with a concentration in dance.  Please see here for more information.

This year's Rider Dances will be held at The Yvonne Theater, Lawrenceville Campus, Rider University.
