It was a huge pleasure for Ballet Jorgen Canada to have local dance and theatre students performing with us in our production of Swan Lake for our 25th anniversary season. Each participant enriched the show with their enthusiasm, commitment and dedication. From Duncan, BC to Halifax, NS our 384 local participants made a vital contribution to the national success of Swan Lake.
We thank these talented young performers for all of their hard work and for making our Swan Lake performances so special. Inspiring, fun and learning experiences were shared by all. If you were one of our local participants this past season, we would love to hear from you. Send us a story, an observation or a discovery that came from your experience in Swan Lake: marketing@balletjorgen.ca.
