Why it matters

We compensate our dancers according to industry standards, because nurturing art means supporting the artists who create it.

Central Oklahoma Ballet Theatre presents high-quality, innovative classical and contemporary ballet to the Oklahoma community, and financially supports the local artists and choreographers who make it. Paid contemporary ballet work is scarce in Oklahoma, and every gift keeps more of it here.
