A curated mixed program bringing together four choreographic visions

WORLD PREMIERE
New Work by Joanna Lige
Choreography: Joanna Lige

Joanna Lige returns with a striking new work inspired by the resilience of the natural world. In the face of environmental destruction, beauty may appear fragile, yet beneath the surface lies an extraordinary capacity to survive. Through richly expressive movement, Lige explores the grief of ecological loss while affirming nature's quiet persistence.

Acts of Remembrance
Choreography: Simone Orlando
Composer: Owen Belton

Acts of Remembrance is a poignant tribute to those who served and gave their lives in times of war. Set to the sweeping, emotive score of Canadian composer Owen Belton, the work reflects on the profound human cost of conflict, drawing inspiration from pivotal First World War battles including Vimy Ridge and Passchendaele. Combining arresting imagery with stirring music, Acts of Remembrance honours the courage, sacrifice, and enduring legacy of the Canadians who faced these defining moments in history.

WORLD PREMIERE
New Work by Donaldo Nava
Choreography: Donaldo Nava

Company dancer Donaldo Nava makes his solo choreographic debut with a heartfelt new work created for Kurt Werner, who concludes his final season with Ballet Kelowna. With intimate solos and a vivid duet, the piece contemplates the relationships that shape us and the lasting bonds forged through dance.

The Reassuring Effects (of Form and Poetry)
Choreography: Trey McIntyre

Back by popular demand, Trey McIntyre's The Reassuring Effects (of Form and Poetry) delights with its infectious energy, musicality, and spirit. Set to Antonín Dvořák's radiant Serenade for Strings in E Major, this exhilarating work showcases eight dancers in a dazzling display of speed, precision, and uplifting movement that the Miami Herald described as moving "with the speed and clarity of light."

Ballet Kelowna’s 2026/27 season is presented by the Thomas Alan Budd Foundation
