Creating Tomorrow’s

Classics

Building New Repertoire. Building a Legacy.

Donate Now:

Every great ballet company is defined by the stories it tells—and creates.

New repertoire is how we build a legacy—not just of performance, but of innovation, collaboration, and bold artistic voice. With each new creation, Alberta Ballet deepens its role as a cultural leader—telling stories that resonate with today’s audiences and tomorrow’s generations. At Alberta Ballet, donor support helps us build new repertoire that keeps ballet relevant, reflective, and alive.

These original works extend far beyond a single season. They become part of our artistic legacy—ready to tour, revive, or license—bringing long-term cultural impact and financial sustainability to Alberta Ballet.

What Your Support Helped Make Possible:

  • Multiple new works added to Alberta Ballet’s active repertoire

  • International and Canadian choreographers commissioned to create original ballets

  • Expanded programming for future touring, licensing, and educational partnerships

  • Growth in audience attendance and media engagement for new works

  • Increased investment in dancers’ creative development and artistic versatility

We spend over $400K on New Works every year.

Our next chapter sets bold targets for new works that will shape Alberta Ballet's future.

With a growing repertoire and deeper community connections, Alberta Ballet is poised to reach more people—and create more impact—than ever before.

The 2025/26 season includes the following New Works:

  • Nijinsky Tribute: $150,000 (includes 4 Canadian choreographers)

  • Nutcracker: $220,000 (excludes costumes)

  • Winter Gala: $45,000

Help us create tomorrow’s classics today. Your gift will bring bold new ballets to life—works that will inspire audiences now and for generations to come.
