Danse Etoile Ballet is a non-profit junior dance company in Louisville, Colorado. The company emphasizes classical ballet, but also incorporates many other styles of dance in their performances and in the classroom. The director and former professional dancer, Marie-Jose Payanette, founded Danse Etoile in 2004 in Broomfield, Colorado. The company puts on story ballets twice a year, and one end of the summer showcase. The dancers range in age from preschool to high school, but Payanette also offers adult classes and sometimes adults feature in the performances as well. Payanette’s past performances include Alice in Wonderland, One Thousand and One Nights, Cinderella and more.
