About pub
Princeton University Ballet, fondly known as PUB, is the only student-run dance group at Princeton dedicated to the art of contemporary and classical ballet. The company was founded by Virginia Byron '10 and Elizabeth Rosen '10 in 2008 in order to provide greater opportunities for students to continue performing ballet while studying at Princeton.
Since then, PUB has grown into a thriving company that strives to show the Princeton community how awesome ballet can be, while maintaining a high level of technical excellence. All of our members are full time undergraduates at Princeton University. PUB Dancers have studied at such institutions as School of American Ballet, San Francisco Ballet School, Pacific Northwest Ballet, the JKO School, Washington Ballet School, the Juilliard School, LINES Ballet School, and National Ballet of Canada. Each of our shows features classical repertory as well as contemporary pieces choreographed by students and professional guest choreographers. Our fall show includes excerpts from The Nutcracker, a crowd favorite. Auditions for PUB are held each fall, just before classes start.
