A Titusville native, America’s Got Talent finalist, principal dancer, choreographer, and composer, Arcadian Broad is a Space Coast success story — and a guest artist who inspires Brevard Ballet Academy students.
When Brevard County families wonder whether a dancer from the Space Coast can truly reach the top of the art form, the answer has a name: Arcadian Broad. Originally from Titusville, Florida, Arcadian is a principal dancer, choreographer, composer, and screen performer — and a guest artist who brings extraordinary experience and perspective to Brevard Ballet Academy students.
A Space Coast Prodigy
Arcadian began in tap, hip-hop, and jazz before discovering ballet. After earning a scholarship at ADC IBC, he attended Orlando Ballet’s Summer Intensive at age 15. One year later he became the youngest professional dancer in Orlando Ballet history, later rising to Principal Dancer under Robert Hill. At just 20, he founded the company’s Artist in Residence program. He has also performed as a Principal Dancer with Cincinnati Ballet and Sarasota Ballet.
Choreographer, Composer, and Screen Artist
Arcadian has created fifteen contemporary works and two full-length ballets — Beauty & the Beast and Wonderland: Mad Tales of the Hatter — both featuring his own original orchestral scores. Before his ballet career he was a Top 10 finalist on America’s Got Talent and appeared on The Ellen Show and So You Think You Can Dance. His screen credits include The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, Tall Girl 2, and Amazon Prime’s Étoile.
