Company Update 2026

It has been an amazing 2025 – 2026 for Northern Ballet, culminating with our tour of brand-new ballet Gentleman Jack.

As we start to look ahead to the autumn season, we’re pleased to announce that Antoni Cañellas Artigues, Gemma Coutts, Julie Nunès and Miguel Teixeira have been promoted to Coryphée.

The company will also be joined by Apprentice Dancers Alejandro González and Keisuke Miyazaki.

Don’t miss our upcoming performances: Three Short Ballets, Cinderella and Wuthering Heights.
