American Repertory Ballet (ARB) is a storied New Jersey dance company with a rich history and a broad educational footprint. Founded in 1954 as the Princeton Ballet Society and becoming a professional company in 1978 as Princeton Ballet Company, the organization was renamed American Repertory Ballet in 1990. ARB operates as a three-part family: the professional company, Princeton Ballet School, and Access & Enrichment, delivering performances, training, and community programming across the state.

As a founding resident company of the New Brunswick Performing Arts Center (NBPAC), ARB anchors the region’s vibrant performing arts scene. The company’s season blends classical masterworks with contemporary choreographies, ensuring accessible, high-caliber ballet for diverse audiences. ARB’s commitment to development is illustrated by ARB2, the company’s development ensemble that cultivates the next generation of dancers.

For theater lovers and families around New Jersey, ARB’s Nutcracker remains a beloved holiday staple, touring multiple NJ venues each season.
