Canada's Ballet Jörgen's Anne of Green Gables – The Ballet™

CANADA- With original choreography by Bengt Jörgen, C.M. and a ballet score arranged by Alexander Levkovich, this is the first ever full-length ballet following the story of Canada’s very own Anne Shirley!

From Dana Ginsberg (Market Manager), at Canada’s Ballet Jörgen:

This creation is monumental for the company and enables us to present this uniquely Canadian story to communities across the country. This creation is made possible through the assistance of the heirs of Lucy Maud Montgomery. A full-sized symphonic ballet score will be created as an extended orchestration of the Anne of Green Gables – The Musical® made possible through a partnership with Avonlea Productions Ltd. and Erinsharn Productions Ltd.

Check out the videos below for more information about the process of adapting this heartfelt story into a ballet.
