CINDERELLA
Presented by Canada’s Ballet Jörgen
February 7th, 2015
Centennial Concert Hall
"This is a honey of a production - one that brings magic back to the ballet stage." - The Hamilton Spectator
This ballet by Bengt Jörgen is an innovative take on the classic fairy tale. Jörgen's choreography balances the fairy tale elements of the story with a contemporary treatment of Cinderella and her family relationships. Returning to the original Russian tradition of having women perform the roles of the stepsisters, Jörgen builds a more realistic and human look at Cinderella and her circumstances, and then uses these scenes to both counterpoint and highlight the magical aspects of the story.
Glenn Davidson's set design creates a fantastical environment based on the idea of the natural world reclaiming man-made structures. Inspiration for the set pieces is drawn from ice storms and old forests. Costume designs by Robert Doyle playfully echo each characters personality.
Ballet Jörgen's Cinderella is a classical ballet with modern, dramatic sensibilities. |

THE FAERIE QUEEN
A Ballet Based on A Midsummer Night's Dream
With the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra
April 29th - May 3rd, 2015
Centennial Concert Hall
"The classically based but decidedly contemporary choreography flows smoothly, creating clever transitions from scene to scene." - Critical Dance
Experience this enchanting story filled with love, magic, and deception. Fantasy meets visually exquisite dance as choreographer John Alleyne paints the stage in this full-length ballet based on Henry Purcell's opera of the same name, and on Shakespeare's magical comedy, A Midsummer Night's Dream. Follow Puck, as the fairy with a penchant for causing chaos, ensnaring both humans and fairies alike in romance and confusion with her magical flower blossom. The Faerie Queen is an exploration of the contrasting elements of fantasy and reality - dark and light, mortal and immortal, male and female - and what happens when these powerful elements collide with one another. |
