About BRIGHTON BALLET THEATER CO INC

Brighton Ballet Theater (founded 1987) is a Brooklyn-based nonprofit dance school and company that provides year‑round classical ballet and folk-dance instruction, performance opportunities, and community programming for children and adults. The organization emphasizes access — offering scholarships and free/low-cost programming — and prepares students to perform full-scale ballets with professional-level costumes and scenery. The EIN 11-3195590 was confirmed against public nonprofit records and matches the organization’s filings and public disclosures. Brighton Ballet Theater remains active: it operates multiple divisions (children, pre-professional, modern, adult), runs public-school performance programs and seasonal productions (including recent Nutcracker and winter programming), and has received municipal arts support in recent years to sustain outreach and student-wellness initiatives. Brighton Ballet maintains partnerships with local arts organizations, presents touring and school-based performances intended for young audiences, and reports regular annual filings (most recent Form 990 filings report operating revenue and expenses in the mid‑hundred‑thousands range), reflecting continued program delivery and community impact.
