Emperor's New Clothes

Based on the fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen, the dancers of Ballet Jörgen Canada masterfully tell the comedic tale The Emperor's New Clothes. This ballet will delight young audiences with Benjamin Hatcher's imaginative choreography and colourful characters, such as the vain and gullible emperor and devious tailor. In a light and humorous way, the story reinforces life lessons like believing in yourself, not giving into peer pressure and celebrating diversity.

"The versatile Ballet Jörgen Canada dancers expose their clowning abilities in a show that has much appeal even for the toddlers in the audience, without being overtly educational."
