As Richmond Ballet prepares for founding artistic director Stoner Winslett’s departure this summer, it has hired its first executive director and has announced its upcoming season, which will include a move to the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts’ Leslie Cheek Theater.
Winslett will step down from Richmond Ballet on July 1, after founding and working with the company for 40 years.
Associate artistic director Ma Cong, who joined Richmond Ballet in 2020, will become the Ballet’s new artistic director. With that in mind, the company hired its first executive director, Maya Erhardt.

Maya Erhardt joins Richmond Ballet as its first executive director. Ma Cong will become artistic director.
“We are thrilled with the appointment of Maya as Richmond Ballet’s first-ever executive director,” said Meg Clinard of the Richmond Ballet board in a statement. “With a focus on strategic management and resource development, this new position will alleviate Ma of some of the administrative leadership responsibility which will allow him to have more time in the studio choreographing and mentoring dancers.”

Richmond Ballet also announced its 2024-25 season, which will open Sept. 17-22 with “Studio Finale,” a farewell to the Ballet’s in-house, 250-seat Studio Theatre at 407 E. Canal St. The company began performing in the space in 2001.
In the spring, the Ballet will relocate its repertory productions to the 472-seat Leslie Cheek Theater, which recently underwent a multimillion-dollar renovation at the VMFA at 200 N. Arthur Ashe Blvd.
“This will be a homecoming of sorts, as we last performed in the Cheek Theater in the 1990s,” Winslett said in a statement. “This move will also allow us to reach new and broadening audiences as the theater capacity will be nearly double that of our Studio Theatre.”
In the new space, the Studio Series will be called the Moving Art Series with triple bills.
“I see these programs as the perfect dinner menu — with a starter, main course, and dessert,” Cong said in a statement.
The Moving Art Series will officially launch with a March 20-30 run at the Leslie Cheek Theater with “Moving Art 1,” featuring “Lambarena” by Val Caniparoli, “After the Rain” by Christopher Wheeldon and Cong’s “Pentaptych.” “Moving Art 2,” running May 8-18, will feature Winslett’s “Echoing Past,” Joshua L. Peugh’s “Slump” and Yury Yanowsky’s “Fading Creatures.”
