BALLETCOLLECTIVE IS THE NEW YORK-BASED INTERDISCIPLINARY ARTS NONPROFIT KNOWN FOR ITS COLLABORATIVE MODEL. Founded in 2010 by acclaimed choreographer and director Troy Schumacher, BalletCollective asks not what ballet is, but what it can be—partnering with both established and emerging art makers and thought leaders in a deeply collaborative, original process to make forward-thinking ballet-based works. BalletCollective exclusively performs original, commissioned work and has partnered with a roster of 311+ acclaimed artists, architects, authors, choreographers, composers, musicians, designers, and dancers (“The Collective”) to make 30+ works to date, including two-full length pieces, The Nutcracker at Wethersfield and The Night Falls. BalletCollective’s work has been presented by the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Joyce Theater, NYU Skirball Center, Guggenheim Works & Process, PEAK Performances, Guggenheim Bilbao, Vail Dance Festival, the Fire Island Dance Festival, and the Savannah Music Festival. In 2020, BalletCollective commissioned and safely produced both the first world-premiere one-act ballet, Natural History, and the first world-premiere full-length ballet, The Nutcracker at Wethersfield, to be performed in-person in the United States during the Covid-19 Pandemic.
