Bengt Jörgen, Artistic Director and CEO of Ballet Jörgen Canada has announced the creation of a new full-length version of the holiday classic, set in Ontario at the turn of the last century.

The Group of Seven Nutcracker will be a portrait of Canada in the early 20th century, inspired by three famous Canadian paintings, Carmichael‘s Church and Houses at Bisset, Thomson‘s Snow in the Woods, and Fitzgerald‘s Trees and Wildflowers. Young dancers selected will play roles such as squirrels, loons, snowflakes, dragonflies and beavers, as well as several traditional Nutcracker children‘s roles.
