Beloved all over the world for its drama and romance, Ballet Jorgen brings the timeless ballet classic Swan Lake to life this February. Set to the beautiful score by Tchaikovsky, Ballet Jorgen weaves Canadian features into the set and costuming for a truly unique experience!
“We are committed to not only recreate ballet classics in a way that is respectful of tradition, but also in a way that is engaging for our modern audience. We engage in a dialogue about Canada and reflect Canadian identity in our work. There’s no reason why Swan Lake has to be staged in some imaginary medieval European place. This version of Swan Lake is set in and around the Fortress of Louisbourg, Nova Scotia,and so our audiences will see Canadian heritage intrinsically reflected in the piece. I am so excited about this work and be able to do it with the kind of incredible dancers that we have. Swan Lake has an evocative and inspiring quality that makes it a pleasure and beauty to work on, and I’m excited about transferring that feeling to the people watching it.” – Bengt Jörgen
