Repertoire

Canada’s Ballet Jörgen was founded to support the development and dissemination of original choreography. We only dance ballets created on the Company ensuring an entirely original repertoire of ballets. We tell Canadian stories and celebrate our heritage by transplanting major classical ballets such as The Nutcracker, Swan Lake and Sleeping Beauty into Canadian settings.

To date Canada’s Ballet Jörgen has presented 257 original creations by 92 different choreographers.
