An Evening with the Wilmington Ballet

Led by the Wilmington Ballet Academy of the Dance alumnus and Executive Artistic Director Benjamin Sterling Cannon, this highly engaging evening celebrates dance through a rich, multicultural lens. Audiences will gain fascinating insight into the history of the art, the daily lifestyle and training of artists, and performance excerpts from an eclectic repertoire. It offers a rare, captivating bridge between foundational classical traditions and dynamic modern artistic expressions. The performance honors a historic lineage, tracing back to the 1981 founding by World Champion Scottish Highland Dancer and Boston Ballet alumnus Victor Wesley as the performing arm of Wilmington’s The Academy of the Dance —originally founded by Delaware dance legends James Jamieson and Madame Helene Antonova.
