Sadler's Wells Theatre Ballet was founded in 1946 to provide dance performances at Sadler's Wells Theatre in London. Its first artistic director was John Field, who later worked as co-director of the Royal Ballet. In 1955, Sadler's Wells Theatre Ballet relocated to the Royal Opera House but retained its name. It returned to Sadler's Wells Theatre in 1970. Twenty years later, the company relocated to Birmingham and changed its name to Birmingham Royal Ballet.
