Post:ballet is the official company of Berkeley Ballet Theater, a renowned pre-professional ballet school and adult dance community founded in 1980 and developed by Artistic Director Emerita, Sally Streets. Now led by Artistic Director Robert Dekkers, named “25 to Watch” by DANCE Magazine, BBT is dedicated to providing exceptional training in a nurturing environment to dancers of all ages.
Both Post:ballet and Berkeley Ballet Theater share the core values of artistic excellence, inclusivity, passion, and imagination, and each organization is dedicated to using its programming to actively cultivate community. As the official company of BBT, Post now has a permanent home in Berkeley at 1370 Tenth Street, enabling the company to amplify its impact by sharing artistic experiences and collaborative performances with audiences on both sides of the bay. Post’s creative team, with support from the administrative team at BBT as well as both organization’s communities of artists and arts lovers, is taking the company’s interdisciplinary programming to the next level as it enters its second decade of presenting new works here in the Bay Area and beyond.
