James Sewell Ballet

James Sewell Ballet continues to evolve as Big Sky’s favorite ballet company. For their eighth season at WMPAC, James and the company bring ballet works never before seen in Big Sky and their renowned repertoire of quirk, elegance, and expressive movement.

James Sewell Ballet was founded in New York City by James Sewell and Sally Rousse and brought to Minnesota in 1993. Combining their expertise, vision and chutzpah they envisioned a close-knit company of dance artists willing to both challenge their physical limits and expand their notions about ballet. Over two decades later, critically acclaimed JSB performances move and delight audiences across the country. The embodiment of the original vision is a professional company of dancers performing innovative work that explores the technical boundaries of ballet.
