On our blog and on our Facebook, Instagram and YouTube we invite you to take a look behind the scenes and tell exciting stories from everyday ballet life! In this way, you stay always up to date and can experience the Hamburg Ballet up close. It is important to us to let the people who contribute to the creation of the productions have their say - in interviews with dancers, choreographers, musicians and ballet masters, we provide insights from up close and take a look at the set, costumes and makeup. We present this content in articles, videos and photos as a multimedia complement and accompaniment to your visit of our performances. Our monthly Newsletter also keeps you up to date with the latest and most important regarding the Hamburg Ballet.
