Help bring new and exciting dance works to life.
Compagnie de la Citadelle’s repertoire is eclectic, daring and technically sophisticated. A visually rich, emotionally arresting tapestry nourished by talented choreographers and gifted artists and collaborators from many disciplines.
Through remount initiatives, the Compagnie also dedicates itself to the preservation of important Canadian dance work and makes iconic repertoire available to a new generation of dancers and audiences, including the work of renowned choreographer James Kudelka and most recently Jean-Pierre Perreault’s masterwork Nuit.
Curate
Invest in a creative future. Support our artists.
The Citadel is home to multiple presentation series making space for the work of artists from here in Toronto and across the country.
Our season at The Citadel, Citadel LIVE, plays host to an abundance of rich and provocative work by talented creators and captivating performers. From our late-night dance fest Night Shift to our newest series Citadel Dance Exchange, we work to support the vision of exceptional artists dedicated to moving audiences through dance.
Cultivate
Play a key role in helping us support our community.
The Citadel is an integral part of its local community and is host to multiple outreach initiatives including the Citadel Dance Program, delivering free dance education to local children and youth, and community partner Toronto Council Fire’s Indigenous dance program First Fire.
Citadel + Compagnie wishes to express its deep gratitude towards the following supporters whose significant lifetime giving of over $100,000 has helped us create not only The Citadel: Ross Centre for Dance but has also supported our ongoing operations, productions and tours. Thank you!
