Biographical History

Charles Lisner was the founder and first artistic director of the Queensland Ballet. Born in Paris, France, Lisner emigrated to Australia with his parents in 1937. He trained with Edouard Borovansky and danced with his ballet company before going to London to continue dance studies with the Sadler's Wells Ballet School. He later joined the Royal Ballet, Covent Garden. In 1953 Lisner returned to Queensland to open the Lisner Ballet Academy, and in 1960, the Lisner Ballet Company. The company was re-named Queensland Ballet in 1962.
