Ballet Kelowna’s Masters’ Play showcases Canadian choreographers
Ballet Kelowna will perform a series of influential short pieces by Canadian master choreographers that helped shape dance in Canada on Mar. 17 at the Revelstoke Community Centre.
Masters’ Play includes early seminal works in Canadian choreography such as Kay Armstrong’s critically acclaimed 1949 work Etude and Nesta Toumine’s 1951 hypnotic Gymnopedies.
“As we honour our great Canadian athletes in this Olympic year, I feel it is fitting and proper that we also celebrate the wonderfully moving and innovative legacy of great Canadian choreography,” says Ballet Kelowna artistic director David LaHay, “Masters’ Play pays homage to the genius of Canadian choreographers in a diverse repertoire of ground-breaking and influential works that span 60 years of our rich heritage.”
