  • Contribution to Dance (1964-2019)
    VERONICA TENNANT, C.C. Contribution to DANCE in CANADA 1964-2018 During her illustrious career as Principal Dancer with The National Ballet of Canada, Veronica Tennant won a devoted following on the national and international stage as a dancer of versatility and dramatic power. At 18, the youngest Principal Dancer in the company Tennant was chosen by Celia Franca and John Cranko, for her debut as Juliet. She went on to earn accolades in every major classical role as well as having several contemporary ballets choreographed on her. She was chosen by, and worked with the legendary choreographers: Sir Frederick Ashton, Roland Petit, Erik Bruhn, John Neumeier and Jiri Kylian – and she in turn nurtured a younger generation of Canadian choreographers including James Kukelka, Anne Ditchburn, Constantin Patsalas and David Allan. For 25 years she danced across North and South America, Europe and Japan, dancing with the greatest male dancers of our time including; Erik Bruhn, Rudolf Nureyev, Anthony Dowell, Mikhail Baryshnikov, Edward Villella, Fleming Flindt, Peter Schaufuss, Niels Kehlet, Fernando Bujones, Ivan Nagy, Jean Pierre Bonnefous and Richard Cragun. She was blessed with her Canadian partners, from Earl Kraul (her first Romeo), to Lawrence Adams, Glenn Gilmour, Frank Augustyn, Sergiu Stefanschi, Kevin Pugh, Rex Harrington and Raymond Smith (her tenth Romeo). Two of the CBC television performances with Tennant in the title role; Cinderella and The Sleeping Beauty, won Emmy Awards. Her first, in Norman Campbell’s 1965 production of Romeo and Juliet won Le Prix Barthelmy in Monte Carlo. Veronica Tennant gave her farewell performances in 1989 – dancing her signature role in, Romeo and Juliet and in the Gala – A Passion For Dance – Celebrating the Tennant Magic.

Tennant was chosen by Celia Franca and John Cranko for her debut as Juliet. She went on to earn accolades in every major classical role and extensive neo-classical repertoire as well as having several contemporary ballets choreographed for her. She worked with the legendary choreographers; Sir Frederick Ashton, Roland Petit, Jiri Kylian, John Neumeier, and championed Canadian choreographers such as James Kudelka, Ann Ditchburn, Constantin Patsalas and David Allan.
