Birmingham Royal Ballet have released a set of new images titled Our City, Your Ballet taken in and around their home city of Birmingham featuring members of the Company and taken by local photographer and Canon Ambassador, Clive Booth. 
 
The collection of images will be displayed across the city over the coming weeks as Birmingham Royal Ballet celebrates its connection with the city and invites more people to discover and support the Company - brb.org.uk/ourcity. 
 
The internationally renowned touring ballet company was first established in Birmingham by Sir Peter Wright in 1990, transferring the Company to the city after formerly being known as Sadler’s Wells Royal Ballet. Since then, millions of audience members have enjoyed performances and community and educational work across the globe, taking the name of Birmingham across the world. 
 
There's a world-leading ballet company in the heart of Birmingham. Yours.
 
From our home next to Birmingham Hippodrome we bring new life to ballet – celebrating the tradition of grand ballets like Swan Lake while pushing the art form in bold new directions, telling Birmingham stories with radical productions like Black Sabbath – The Ballet. And always underpinned by the artistry and technical excellence that make us admired around the world.
 
We proudly carry Birmingham's name across the UK and around the world. 
 
We are BRB. This is our home. 
 
Leap in!
 
This June, Birmingham Royal Ballet will mark 100 years of Founding Director Laureate and one of ballet’s most influential directors and choreographers, Sir Peter Wright, with a special gala performance at their home, Birmingham Hippodrome, on Thursday 18 June 2026. On Friday 19 & Saturday 20 June, Birmingham Royal Ballet will present 20th-Century Masterpieces - a triple-bill of some of ballet’s most important works of the last century.
