Join Canada’s National Ballet School in celebrating Canada’s 150^th with Sharing Dance Canada 2017. This project will showcase Canada’s history, cultural richness and diversity through dance, while also bringing together and empowering communities across the country to share their stories of what it means to be Canadian. For this year’s dance performance, four Canadian choreographers—representing distinct styles of dance, cultural backgrounds and geographic locations in Canada—have collaborated to give voice and movement to a unique work that embodies and celebrates Canada’s diversity and artistic identity. Choreographers include Kimberley Cooper (Calgary), Eugene Baffoe (Winnipeg), Tracee Smith (Toronto) and Roger Sinha (Montreal). 

NBS’ Sharing Dance Canada 2017 is encouraging you to join in! If you’d like to learn the choreography prior to the performance, you can register at sharingdance.ca to access free rehearsal videos or join one of the public rehearsals taking place in Ottawa.
