Your Holiday Destination

With this new creation that celebrates Janette Bertrand, Rébecca Déraspe imagines a lively conversation between the grande dame, played by Guylaine Tremblay, and several generations of characters.

Choreographed by Fernand Nault to Pyotr Tchaikovsky’s sumptuous score and inspired by E. T. A. Hoffmann’s tale, The Nutcracker has, over the decades, grown from a ballet into an enduring family holiday tradition. Its staging exudes timeless poetry and a warmth we are always delighted to rediscover, year after year.

To mark the 50^th anniversary of the passing of the legendary jazz pianist and composer Vince Guaraldi, the Festival Classica Orchestra, joined by renowned pianist Lorraine Desmarais and her jazz trio, invites you to celebrate the holiday season with A Charlie Brown Christmas, in a symphonic version.
