Producers' Circle

Fuelling Innovation

Opportunity has never been greater for The National Ballet of Canada to partner with leading choreographers, composers and production designers on projects of national and international significance.

The Producers' Circle provides Hope Muir with the financial platform to explore emerging opportunities for creative collaborations and the flexibility she needs to plan new productions over the long-term. Knowing that future funding is committed and available, she is pursuing important projects for the artists, audiences and artistic growth of the National Ballet.

"The creative spirit has always been intrinsic to The National Ballet of Canada and this dedication to new works in currently flourishing with remarkable excitement and energy. The members of The Producers' Circle are inspired by Karen Kain and her pursuit of projects that energize dancers, inspire audiences and remind the world that Canada is a leader in creating extraordinary new works of art that the world wants to see." Sandra Faire, Chair, Producers' Circle
