Use of Images and Names
In the creation of the Boston Ballet 50 year history mircosite, every effort has been made to portray accurate and well credited information. Boston Ballet staff has done their best to properly credit and identify all photographers, dancers, choreographers, and staff portrayed on the site. If we have identified you or your work incorrectly please contact us at archive@bostonballet.org and every effort will be made to rectify any issues which may arise.
We welcome your input
If you have more information about any images or milestones represented in the site, or feel we have missed something important please contact us at archive@bostonballet.org and let us know. This website is intended to grow and encompass as much of the rich history of Boston Ballet as we are able and we welcome your participation.
*please note, for legal reasons, Boston Ballet cannot guarantee that all suggestions or requests can be accommodated.
