1965 – International Ballet Caravan established by Alexander Roy and Christina Gallea. It was later re-named Alexander Roy London Ballet Theatre

The Alexander Roy London Ballet Theatre was a small independent company that was strongly committed to ballet rather than modern dance. Based in London, it toured for a remarkable 30 years, visiting Britain, Paris, Berlin and New York. The company grew out of the International Ballet Caravan, initially consisting of seven dancers, formed in Paris in 1965 by the German dancer Alexander Roy and his Australian partner and wife Christina Gallea. It toured around Europe and Britain, and in 1974 became the Alexander Roy London Ballet Theatre. Often putting on over 100 performances of its own productions and choreography a year, the small company followed its own independent trajectory without receiving any state funding. The company closed in 2000 when Roy and Gallea decided to retire.
