Ballet Jorgen - A Midsummer Night's Dream

Ballet Jörgen’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream is a whimsical adaptation of Shakespeare’s beloved comedy, blending love, mischief, and magic with Mendelssohn’s iconic score, including the "Wedding March." Choreographed by Bengt Jörgen, this version pays tribute to Canada’s North, reimagining the enchanted forest with moose, bears, and other native creatures. The family-friendly ballet features professional dancers and invites local youth (ages 9-17) to perform through the Local Participant Program. With humor, heart, and a magical setting, this captivating production offers an accessible and charming introduction to ballet for audiences of all ages.
