SUMMARY:Ballet Jörgen’s Anne of Green Gables – The Ballet® @ THE CAPITOL SEASON
DESCRIPTION:Ballet Jörgen: Anne of Green Gables – CAPITOL SEASON\nAdult $55\n30 and Under $49.50 \nThe creation of Anne of Green Gables – The Ballet® is monumental for Canada’s Ballet Jörgen as it is the first time the story has been authorized for creation as a full-length ballet. Making the production even more special\, a company of 16-20 dancers will be joined on stage by local dancers. \nAnne of Green Gables is a 1908 novel by Canadian author Lucy Maud Montgomery (published as L. M. Montgomery). Although written for all ages\, it is cherished by many children. Anne Shirley\, a young orphan from the fictional community of Bolingbroke\, Nova Scotia (based upon the real community of New London\, Prince Edward Island)\, has spent a childhood living in strangers’ homes and orphanages. Anne is mistakenly sent to live with Marilla and Matthew Cuthbert\, siblings in their fifties and sixties\, who were expecting to adopt a boy to help Matthew run their farm at Green Gables\, in the fictional town of Avonlea. \nAnne is highly imaginative\, eager to please and quite dramatic\, but dislikes her appearance\, despising her red hair and pale\, thin frame. And\, at first\, stern and sharp Marilla wants to return Anne to the orphanage\, but after much consideration\, along with Matthew’s strong liking of Anne\, she decides to let her stay. \nAnne takes much joy in life and adapts quickly\, thriving in the close-knit farming village. With her wild imagination and talkativeness Anne soon brightens up Green Gables. Anne of Green Gables – The Ballet® \nBased on Anne of Green Gables – The Musical™.Original Choreography by Bengt Jörgen\, C.M. Music composed by Norman Campbell.Ballet Score Arranged by Alexander Levkovich. Set & Costume Design by Sue LePage. Original Lighting Design Rebecca Picherack.

Bring your Headphones and laptop with your preferred DAW or hardware such as MPC\, Maschine\, Push3\, or others. \nThe event is on March 6th from 6-9:30 pm at “The Jam Factory”\, 303 Vernon St\, Nelson\, BC V1L 4E3. This inaugural event kicks off a series of monthly jams\, each featuring a unique collaboration “game” or “style”. Here’s how it works: \nSeed Creation: We’ll provide a “Seed” – a sample\, stems\, or a found sound (like popcorn popping). \nProduction Phase: Spend the first hour creating elements (drums\, bass\, synths\, chops\, etc.) inspired by or derived from the Seed. \nStem Sharing: Export your audio stems and upload them to a shared Dropbox or USB. \nCollaboration Phase: In the remaining hour\, combine uploaded elements from other participants as you see fit. \nShow and Tell: Conclude with a showcase and Q&A session. \nThis collaborative approach\, dubbed “Co-Independent Collaboration”\, aims to foster community networking\, enhance creative decision-making skills\, boost confidence\, and inspire both new and seasoned electronic composers. Don’t miss out on the opportunity to have fun\, learn\, and connect with fellow music enthusiasts! \nRECAP: \n-Date: March 6th \n-Time: 6:00 pm – 9:30 pm \n-Location: The Jam Factory\, 303 Vernon St\, Nelson\, BC V1L 4E3 \n-Cost: $5 participation fee (to cover space rental) \nWhat to Bring: \n-Laptop with preferred DAW \n-Hardware if you prefer (e.g.\, MPC\, Maschine\, Push3) \n-Headphones \nQUESTIONS? \nText or call: 1 250 505 7725 \nSEE YOU THERE! \nOh! and don’t forget to bring a friend!
