Princeton Ballet School offers many performance opportunities to its students.  As the official school of the American Repertory Ballet, students have the opportunity to audition to perform with the company in its annual production of The Nutcracker in theaters throughout New Jersey.  There are also frequent occasions for students to appear with the professional company in other ballets.  At the end of the school year, students may participate in a school production of a classical ballet.  Rehearsals are held outside the regular class, allowing students to continue learning throughout the year, and also to have a better understanding of the process of putting together a ballet production.
