The Royal Winnipeg Ballet School’s Professional Division will perform at Westwood School this Monday.
It’s part of the RWB’s “On the Edge” Tour which is set to visit 10 communities throughout Manitoba and Ontario.
The tour began on April 9th and runs until April 21st.
The Westwood School students and staff will be treated to excerpts from the classical ballet, Don Quixote (Kee-hoe-tee), as well as modern creations by RWB’s choreographer, Gabriela Rehak (Ree-hack), some fiery flamenco dancing and other new works.
The “On the Edge” tour model was adopted by the School in the early 1970s, taking inspiration from the “one-night-only” style of touring that was pioneered by the RWB in 1945.
