In My Life, There Have

There's Nothing Like The Force And Challenge Of A New Ballet To Galvanize Everyone Involved In Bringing It To Life.

Having Alexei Ratmansky Create A New Romeo And Juliet For The National Ballet Of Canada To Mark Our 60th Anniversary Is A Dream Come True. His Aesthetic -- Steeped In The Russian School But Open To Contemporary Sources -- Is Ideal For This Work And For Our Company, Which, With Our Classical Heritage And Our Passion For The Modern, Is Perfectly Suited To His Distinctive Dance Vision.

I Know How Demanding The Process Of Creation Is.

Dancers, Like All Performing Artists, Like Nothing Better Than To Be Challenged.

In The World Of Classical Ballet There Are Only A Handful Of Story Ballets, So Getting A New One Is Cause For Excitement.
