  • Artistic and Executive Leadership Report JUNE 2021
    DD Dance DATA Project RESEARCH+ADVOCACY=EQUITY Artistic and Executive Leadership Report JUNE 2021 © DDP 2021 Dance DATA ARTISTIC AND EXECUTIVE DDP Project] LEADERSHIP REPORT RESEARCH+ADVOCACY=EQUITY Report Summary The following Report is the third annual Dance Data Project® Artistic and Executive Leadership Report and the most comprehensive study to date. For the 2021 Report, the research team produced two parts. The first, Largest 50 U.S. ballet companies and Scope of the Industry, was published in May 2021 and listed the Largest 50 U.S. ballet companies, ordered by budget, as well as the Next 50, for a total of 100 companies surveyed. The Report also detailed the combined expenses of the Largest 50 and Next 50, and revealed that while the Largest 50 command approximately $665,000,000 in operating expenses, the Next 50 total budgets comprise only 7% of that figure, demonstrating a significant disparity in resources favoring the few largest companies. This second Report examines the leadership positions at the Largest 50 and Next 50 U.S. ballet companies and compares the number of men and women in the roles, as well as their respective compensation. The Report goes further to give year-by-year comparisons and further insight into the highest compensated employees at the ballet companies with the largest operating budgets. The Report demonstrates that the position of Artistic Director is held by far more men than women, while the position of Executive Director is much more equitably distributed. However, in both Artistic and Executive Director roles, men are compensated at a higher rate than their female counterparts.
