    Jose Mateo Ballet Theatre


    Comment on Facebook

    Jose Mateo Ballet Theatre is a professional ballet performing company and a ballet school located in the heart of Harvard Square, Cambridge. Founded in 1986, Jose Mateo Ballet Theatre's company and school have forged a new model for a ballet organization through innovative programming, artistic excellence, and extensive community outreach. Critically acclaimed, Jose Mateo Ballet Theatre is distinguished as the only ballet company in New England to produce an entire repertory by it's own resident choreographer. The school, which provides expert dance training to young dancers ages 3-18 and adults of all ages and levels, has been a leader in creating broader access to the art form. It has developed an inclusive approach with new teaching methods that allow students to excel beyond expectation.

          I recently discovered Jose Matteo's Ballet company. They are both professional and riveting. I especially like the venue at Sanctuary Theatre. I will definitely return.

          This production of the Nutcracker was intimate and enjoyable, without the added hustle of trying to get into Boston. The free parking was a bonus. The only thing that I would have liked would have... Expand

          This is a good event for small children. The venue is big enough to be impressive but small enough to deliver good views. Many of the dancers were quite good but the choreography wasn't especially... Expand

          This was the 3rd time we had the chance to attend Jose Matteo's Nutcracker and we loved it again. The Brandeis theater is the perfect venue as it is rather small and we could see very well. Jose... Expand
