Bio

Jack Wolff joined Houston Ballet as an Apprentice in 2018, and is currently a Demi Soloist after his promotion in winter 2022. Originally from Houston, Wolff started his training at Precision Dance Academy, Houston METtoos, and Houston Ballet Summer Intensives. In 2015, he moved to NYC to train at American Ballet Theatre’s JKO School on full scholarship. While living in NYC, Wolff was awarded Young Arts winner in Tap, represented the JKO School at ABT at Prix de Lausanne, and at 16 years old made his professional debut in Bulgaria as a guest artist with iMEE: a company under the direction of Spencer Gavin Hering and Andrea Dawn Shelley. Since being in the company at Houston Ballet, he has worked with respected choreographers such as Arthur Pita, Justin Peck, Azure Barton, Disha Zhang, and Trey McIntyre. He has also been featured in many works of Stanton Welch’s. In 2022, Wolff performed in Trey McIntyre’s world premier of Pretty Things, and had his principal role debut as Peter in McIntyre’s Peter Pan. 

A rising choreographic voice, Wolff has been invited to choreograph for both Houston Ballet II and the Houston Ballet main company. He made his choreographic debut with his piece PIEL in May 2022, and his most recent work, Category Four, was featured in the Margaret Alkek Williams Jubilee of Dance in December 2023. In recognition of his artistry, he was named the inaugural recipient of the Lauren Anderson Dance Residency at Ucross, where he will spend two weeks developing new work in collaboration with fellow Houston Ballet dancers.
