Carolina Ballet Theatre celebrates 50th anniversary season
September 23, 2021
Creating a ballet company a half-century ago in Greenville was no easy feat.
“It was like going through the bush country with a machete,” said Barbara Selvy, founder of Carolina Ballet Theatre. “It took a lot of work by a lot of people.”
But Carolina Ballet Theatre survived and thrived through the years, and now it’s pirouetting into its 50th anniversary season with a slate of its most popular ballets from the past. All performances will take place in front of a live audience.
