SEASON

2025 / 2026

Ballet Edmonton creates contemporary dance that provokes and inspires. Join us for the 2025/2026 season with Artistic Director Kirsten Wicklund.

A season defined by risk, resonance and the incomparable power of the collective. 

This season is a journey into the physical, the ephemeral, and the unknown. We invite you to experience new thresholds of movement, sound and story.

REVERIE

Choreographers

Kirsten Wicklund / Peter Smida
We close the season with REVERIE, an expanded full-evening creation first imagined in 2020. Featuring live choral and instrumental music by Pulitzer Prize–winning composer David Lang, this work fuses voice and movement into an intimate, transcendent experience where body becomes score and sound becomes motion.

GUEST ARTISTS

Each season we seek out collaborations in choreography, music and design to showcase the richness of the Canadian dance community to our audiences. We welcome established and emerging choreographers to create work for us and we bring their creative ideas to life in our studios and on stage.
