Profile
The Buffalo City Ballet Company, Inc., was established in 1972
under the name of Buffalo Inner City Ballet. The primary goal
of the BICB was to create a ballet training program, to provide
local residents of the greater Western New York area with
opportunities to develop a strong foundation in classical
ballet. The BICB strives to identify and refine the dance
talents of the area's youth, particularly persons of color, through
dance instruction and public performance. The
performance aspect of the BICB is under the purview of the Buffalo
City Ballet, our affiliated youth dance company. The dual
functions offered under the auspices of the BICB make it unique
among other dance companies in Western New York.
Offering ballet instruction based on the syllabus of the Russian
Vaganova / Russian Method of dance, as well as Jazz and Contemporary
African Dance, the BICB training school offers classes to community
children residing in the inner city areas of Buffalo and beyond. The
majority of these young dancers take part in productions staged
by the Buffalo City Ballet in the local community.
The Buffalo City Ballet is committed to show-casing the talents
of local performers, particularly highlighting the talents of
minority artists. By offering competitive employment to its
dancers and choreographers, the Buffalo City Ballet continues to
have an important
impact on developing and maintaining the viability of this timeless art form,
as well as contributing to the overall richness of cultural
resources in
Western New York.
