Karen Kain national.ballet.ca 3 Hannah Fischer and Piotr Stanczyk Evan McKie Hannah Fischer and Piotr Stanczyk 4 17/18 Season 17/18 Fall Season presents Shakespeare’s fascinating late work The Winter’s Tale has always defied classification. With elements of tragedy, comedy and romance mingling and The Winter’s Tale running up against one another in an often-complicated story of jealousy, November 10 – 19, 2017 love, vindictiveness and redemption, audiences have never been quite sure how to define this moving, mysterious and ultimately tender creation. A “problem” play it may be, but most people are content to simply accept and cherish it for what it is—a great human drama. Christopher Wheeldon, in his ballet version of the play, shies away from neither the story’s thematic complexities nor the radical and often conflicting shifts in tone that make it the bold and unique work that it is.

The dreams and imaginative powers of childhood, the lure of fantasy and the sheer appeal of spectacle all form part of Kudelka’s vision, which comprises virtuosic dance, inspired comedy and the unbridled visual extravagance that one has come to expect from The Nutcracker. Kudelka has altered the narrative subtly, too, creating beneath the dazzling stagecraft an archetypal story of childhood growth and maturation. Focusing on the quarreling siblings Misha and Marie, the ballet follows the pair as they move through new phases of understanding and experience, preparing them for their entry into the world of adolescence. The brilliantly detailed and sparkling sets by Santo Loquasto evoke an enchanted, rustic world of the Russian past, one replete with folk customs and Choreography and Libretto: The Nutcracker is made possible by generous rituals that magically evolve into the ice-encrusted world of the Snow Queen James Kudelka, O.C. financial support from production underwriters and the splendor of the golden palace of the Sugar Plum Fairy.

  • Soviet Bodies in Canadian Dancesport: Cultural Identities, Embodied Politics, and Performances of Resistance in Three Canadian Ballroom Dance Studios
    SOVIET BODIES IN CANADIAN DANCESPORT: CULTURAL IDENTITIES, EMBODIED POLITICS, AND PERFORMANCES OF RESISTANCE IN THREE CANADIAN BALLROOM DANCE STUDIOS DAVID OUTEVSKY A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN DANCE STUDIES YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO May 2018 © David Outevsky, 2018 Abstract This research examines the effect of Soviet Union era indoctrination on dance pedagogy and performance at DanceSport studios run by Soviet migrants in Canada. I investigate the processes of cultural cross-pollination within this population through an analysis of first and second generation Soviet-Canadian ballroom dancers’ experiences with cultural identity within the dance milieu. My study is guided by questions such as: What are the differences in the relationship between national politics and dance in the Soviet Union and Canada? How have Soviet migrant dancers adapted to the Canadian socio-economic context? And, how did these cultural shifts affect the teaching and performances of these dancers? My positionality as a former Soviet citizen and a ballroom dancer facilitates my understanding of the intricacies of this community and affords me unique entry into their world. To contextualize this study, I conducted an extensive literature review dealing with Soviet physical education, diasporic identities, and embodied politics. I then carried out qualitative interviews and class observation of Soviet- Canadian competitive ballroom dancers at three studios in Ottawa, Toronto and Montreal. The research conducted for this dissertation revealed various cultural adaptation strategies applied by these dancers, resulting in the development of dual identities combining characteristics from both Soviet and Canadian cultures.

  • With Its BAM Debut, Ballet British Columbia Celebrates 10 Years of Emily Molnar's Artistic Leadership Program Includes Willia
    With its BAM debut, Ballet British Columbia celebrates 10 years of Emily Molnar’s artistic leadership Program includes William Forsythe’s Enemy in the Figure, Emily Molnar’s To This Day, and Crystal Pite’s Solo Echo Bloomberg Philanthropies is the Season Sponsor Ballet British Columbia (Ballet BC) Choreography by Crystal Pite, Emily Molnar, and William Forsythe BAM Howard Gilman Opera House (30 Lafayette Ave) Jun 13—15 at 7:30pm Tickets start at $20 May 7, 2019/Brooklyn, NY—Ballet BC makes its BAM debut in celebration of 10 years of Emily Molnar’s artistic direction. In a decade’s time, Molnar has turned the financially strapped company into one of the most potent dance forces in Canada, with a determined focus on contemporary ballet and artistic collaboration. Ballet BC presents three contemporary creations tracing a common lineage to the influential William Forsythe, the former director of Ballett Frankfurt—in which Molnar and Crystal Pite both danced. The program starts with his 1989 masterpiece Enemy in the Figure. With a wavy wall and a pulsating rope dissecting the stage, a rhythmically driven score by Thom Willems, and dancers in and out of shadows, Enemy in the Figure remains mysterious and exhilarating. Molnar’s To This Day is a celebration of Molnar’s fruitful tenure at the company. Inspired by and set to the music of Jimi Hendrix, the piece reveals the intimate and daring space where the blues meets her expressive style. Solo Echo by Crystal Pite is inspired by Mark Strand’s poem Lines for Winter and set to two Brahms sonatas for cello and piano (the Allegro non troppo movement of the E minor, op.

    DANCING FOR CANADA/DANCING BEYOND CANADA: THE HISTORY OF THE NATIONAL BALLET OF CANADA AND THE ROYAL WINNIPEG BALLET’S INTERNATIONAL TOURS, 1958-1974. by Nadia van Asselt A thesis submitted to the Department of History in conformity with the requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada Final (QSpace) submission May, 2021 Copyright ©Nadia van Asselt, 2021 Abstract This thesis traces the growth of the National Ballet of Canada (NBC) and the Royal Winnipeg Ballet (RWB) through international ballet exchanges and reveals how foundational they were to the companies’ current reputations. In the mid-twentieth century, the development of Canadian ballet was intertwined with international exchanges because the Canada Council of the Arts viewed national success as synonymous with international success. The National Ballet of Canada and the Royal Winnipeg Ballet developed different ways of being viewed as Canadian while abroad and established themselves as noteworthy cultural institutions. This thesis is also a study of the non-state actors’ role – ballet companies’ personnel, artistic directors, dancers, and media – in producing or furthering diplomatic relations with host countries and how they either upheld or contradicted state interests. Chapter two examines ten years (1958-1968) of negotiations between the NBC and the Instituto Nacional de Bellas Artes to show how the NBC used Canadian cultural policies and Canada’s national language to attain international tours that focused on fostering the company’s growth. Also, the tour resulted in the NBC building a relationship with Mexico without much help from the government. Chapter three studies the RWB’s engagement with Jamaica for the country’s independence celebrations in 1963 from the perspective of non-state actors – the dancers, media, and private sectors – to understand the motivations in carrying out state interest.
