Craig Hall is here setting Justin Peck’s Rodeo: Four Dance Episodes on our dancers—and things are moving FAST. Big movement, bigger energy and a little bit of organized chaos, all set to Aaron Copland’s iconic score.
It won’t hit the stage until spring in Icons & Innovators, but the work starts now. Swipe through for your very first peek at Rodeo in progress.

No pressure, right?
Those 13 minutes are packed with speed, precision, musicality and nonstop movement—and right now, our dancers are putting it all together in the studio.

We are thrilled to welcome to MCB as she creates a world premiere for the company. Her new work hits the stage this spring as part of our Icons & Innovators program.
In the studio, the piece is unfolding one rehearsal at a time—through collaboration, curiosity, experimentation, and the countless small discoveries that ultimately become something much bigger onstage.
With pup Nyla nearby for a little creative supervision, of course! 🐾

The teachers became the students this week. ✨
We welcomed National Dance Institute to MCB for two days of moving, learning, experimenting, and sharing new ideas—all centered around the power of dance to connect and inspire.
Our Community Engagement teaching artists will take what they’ve learned beyond our studios and into classrooms and communities for our dance education programs across South Florida, sharing the joy of dance with the next generation. Two pretty special days of learning, connection, and creativity at MCB. ❤️
There’s no standing still in N.Y. Export: Opus Jazz.
Every step has a pulse. Every gesture has an attitude. Our dancers are finding all the details that give Jerome Robbins’ choreography its signature edge.
A little more Opus Jazz, in motion. Catch the company premiere as part of American Rhythms, Oct 16-25 in Miami and Ft. Lauderdale.
What does a new ballet look like before it becomes a ballet? A count. A correction. A new idea tried in real time. Then again, differently.
Step inside the studio with Patricia Delgado and our dancers, where the choreography is still evolving, changing from one rehearsal to the next.
This is the part you don’t always get to see.
