Rising Tour: New Canadian Choreographers Triple Bill | Ballet Edmonton

A Triple Bill Evening of Innovative Contemporary Ballet

Step into an electrifying evening of dance featuring the 10 Dancer Ensemble of Ballet Edmonton in three bold new works by Canadian rising star choreographers Kirsten Wicklund, Ethan Colangelo, and Béatrice Larrivée. This triple bill offers a powerful blend of physical risk, emotional depth, and choreographic innovation, showcasing the future of contemporary ballet in Canada.

Each artist brings a distinct choreographic voice to the stage. Wicklund's work pulses with urgency and intuition, blending virtuosic ballet technique with raw contemporary energy. Colangelo, growing in international acclaim and known for a visceral movement language, offers a work that is both poetic and explosively physical. Larrivée draws from her Canadian roots combined with her time with Batsheva Dance Company to craft a piece delving into instinct, intensity, and groove.

All three creations feature original sound design elements, expanding the sensory experience and deepening the atmosphere of each world. Expect powerful human architecture, immersive soundscapes, and movement that redefines what ballet can be.

This evening is a celebration of risk-taking, innovation, and the next wave of Canadian choreographic excellence. Whether you are a dance lover or a curious newcomer, this program promises an unforgettable journey into the edge of contemporary performance.
