Event Description
Aterballetto (Italy)
Mixed Program | Contemporary
February 6 7, 2026 • 7:30 pm • Royal Theatre
As Italy’s first National Choreographic Centre and leading contemporary dance company, Aterballetto is a hub for creativity — fostering dialogue between art forms with a commitment to artistry and avant-garde aesthetics. In the company’s Western Canadian premiere, a mixed program will feature Iratxe Ansa and Igor Bacovich’s Rhapsody in Blue, a large, joyful ensemble work for 16 dancers based on George Gershwin’s famous rhapsody, one hundred years after its first performance; Crystal Pite’s melancholic Solo Echo, a meditation on love, loss, and acceptance; and Angelin Preljocaj’s lyrical and impressionistic female duet Reconciliatio.
