Ballet Tech: The Documentary

Director: Scott Elliott
TRT: In Development / Pre-Production

New York City's Ballet Tech is a truly unique institution in the world of dance and education--a 4th thru 12th grade public school that has a specific focus on graduating professional ballet dancers. Nearly ninety percent of the students are black or Latino and come from diverse neighborhoods found in all five boroughs. Ballet Tech: The Documentary will follow four students over a course of a year both in school and at home. We will watch as these kids grow as students, dancers, and individuals. Some will go on to be dancers, others will drop out, a few will be asked to leave, but together all of their stories will tell the unique and engaging story of Ballet Tech.
