As the studio’s reputation grew, the name changed to Carolina Ballet Theatre and became a pre-professional company. They began gaining the attention of local dance critics and, soon after, lawyer Ward Purrington suggested turning it into a professional ballet company - something the Raleigh area had been missing. In 1998 they did just that, launching under the name Carolina Ballet and appointing Robert Weiss, a former dancer with the New York Ballet, as the founding artistic director. Weiss has created more than 65 new productions since accepting the position.

In 2018 they opened the School of Carolina Ballet. The school offers opportunities to learn from professional ballerinas, hip-hop and contemporary dancers. Students who age through the program have first consideration as trainees for the Carolina Ballet. Purchase Carolina Ballet tickets today to catch a classic performance live.
