Royal Winnipeg Ballet presents Carmina Burana and T’əl: The Wild Man of the Woods

Canada’s Royal Winnipeg Ballet (RWB) presents a striking double bill of celebrated favourite Carmina Burana, featured alongside the evocative West Coast premiere of T’əl: The Wild Man of the Woods, on stage February 9 & 10, 2026 at The Centre Vancouver (777 Homer St).

Carmina Burana fuses bold, athletic movement with Carl Orff’s thunderous and evocative score to create a visceral experience that transcends traditional storytelling. This high-octane work demands everything of its dancers and leaves audiences exhilarated, moved, and inspired.

Hailed by critics and audiences alike at its world premiere, T’əl: The Wild Man of the Woods, created and choreographed by RWB School alumnus Cameron Fraser-Monroe, is a historic collaboration of Indigenous artists that fuses storytelling, contemporary ballet, and classical music – honouring the richness of oral tradition. Narrated in both English and Ayajuthem by Elder Elsie Paul, and scored by JUNO-nominated Cris Derksen, this stunning work marks a bold new chapter in the RWB’s repertoire.
