♦ Founded in 1951 by Celia Franca
The National Ballet of Canada 2026-2027 Season

“Celia Franca founded this company with a vision that was nothing short of audacious. To build a world-class ballet company in Canada in 1951 took extraordinary courage, conviction and imagination. That spirit of bold ambition still lives at the heart of The National Ballet of Canada today.
“It’s a great honour to introduce our 75th anniversary season, my fifth as Artistic Director. With this season, we endeavour to honour a legacy of storytelling, innovation and transformation, reflecting on our history and the artistic values that have shaped this company, while at the same time looking boldly forward.”
Hope Muir, Artistic Director of National Ballet of Canada
