The Evening Will Unfold as Follows ...
ACT I: An immersion into the heart of creation
You'll experience an exclusive, intimate moment as you witness an exclusive excerpt from Joie de vivre , our new choreographic work by Jo Strømgren; a fragile, powerful moment in which the dancers and the entire artistic team reveal themselves without artifice, offering dance in its purest state, under construction before your very eyes.
A rare and powerful moment - You'll witness a dance in full construction, without set or artifice, where every movement is still being shaped.
Privileged access - See the dancers, artistic director and choreographer in the midst of the creative process, discover their work, their adjustments and their physical and emotional commitment.
A meaningful commitment - Your presence that evening goes far beyond a performance: you become a player in the development and innovation of Ballets Jazz Montréal.
ACT II: Celebrate with us!
After this creative immersion, it's time to celebrate and meet new people! The effervescent cocktail party will be an opportunity to strengthen the bonds that unite us. We're preparing the evening to offer you a simple but touching moment of celebration, in the presence of the entire artistic team.
Inspiring encounters - Chat with the dancers, choreographer Jo Strømgren and the artistic team, in a bright and friendly atmosphere.
A festive atmosphere - In a bright and friendly atmosphere, enjoy the presence of the team and dancers, inspiring discussions and a festive atmosphere. And of course, to extend the experience... the dance floor awaits you!
