“I am proud of what Alberta Ballet has created…It’s a strong, contemporary choreography that entertains and challenges new audiences with its new esthetics and its powerful fusion of art mediums.” – Sir Elton John

 

“Grand-Maitre has assembled a knockout team of mostly Canadian collaborators to create this imaginative, visually stunning tribute to an iconic superstar… I don’t think I’ve ever heard such a howl of approval at the end of a ballet premiere as I did tonight.”  – The Toronto Star
