To develop ballet and other performance projects that give voice to artists and performers expressing a unique vision of urban life, the inner city and all aspects of contemporary society, including developing artists and performers who create contemporary, relatable male and female figures who are able to be urban storytellers.


To facilitate, produce and enable the public performances of such projects to a vast range of audiences, particularly those outside the privileged social classes of traditional ballet and theater audiences.


To introduce and promote the arts in a nontraditional way, including through performance and media projects, presentation, workshops and other instruction methods.
