From the sparkling energy of Mendelssohn’s Scherzo to the dramatic storytelling of Prince Siegfried and the Swan Queen, these beloved classics are reimagined with freshness and drive and are a wonderful introduction to the world of ballet.
The program also features an exciting lineup of world premieres and contemporary works, including:
- Two original solos by RWB Aspirant dancers Claudia Einarson and Paige Irwin, created for competition in the prestigious Prix de Lausanne Young Choreographers Award in Switzerland.
- A technically dazzling new creation by Melvin Charles Lawovi, an emerging choreographer and current dancer with American Ballet Theatre in New York, commissioned through the Pathways to Performance initiative.
- A fiery, rhythm-driven new work by Maritel Centurion.
- A powerful contemporary premiere by RWB Principal Dancer Stephan Azulay.
Blending beloved story ballet excerpts with cutting-edge contemporary choreography, On The Edge Tour offers audiences the chance to see RWB’s stars of tomorrow alongside the artistic direction shaping the Company’s future.
Dynamic, emotional, and technically thrilling, this program is a celebration of young talent and the evolving voice of the Royal Winnipeg Ballet.
