# Event Details

- **Event Name**: FREE Ballet Film Screening: Balanchine - Béjart - Pite
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 30 Aug, 2026 at 02:00 pm
- **Event Description**: A triple bill bringing together three landmark works by choreographers George Balanchine, Maurice Béjart, and Crystal Pite. Set to music by George Gershwin, Maurice Ravel, and Max Richter’s reimagining of Vivaldi, the program moves from the wit and glamour of Manhattan with "Who Cares?" to the hypnotic force of "Boléro" and the sweeping intensity of "The Seasons’ Canon." Together, the three ballets reveal the range of modern dance, from Balanchine’s crisp classical style, to Béjart’s ritualistic sensuality, and Pite’s visceral, sculptural movement. In these Opéra national de Paris performances, the company brings each work to life with striking theatrical power, precision, and emotional depth.

Join us this August for four extraordinary screenings of operas and ballets from the Opéra national de Paris, presented at Halifax Central Library’s Paul O’Regan Hall. Each film screening begins at 2:00pm on Sundays in August, admission is FREE, and advance registration is available on our website: ?️ ceciliaconcerts.ca or through the link in our bio.

Co-presented by Cecilia Concerts, Alliance Française Halifax, Halifax Public Libraries, and the Opéra national de Paris. Season Sponsor: Nice Moves / Red Door Realty
