An adventure in a dream, The Wizard of Oz delights with every twist of the plot!

Francesco Ventriglia's enchanting The Wizard of Oz invites audience on a spectacular voyage through a world of imagination, heart, and courage!

Francesco’s innovative rendition offers a fresh twist and unique framing on Frank L. Baum’s treasured story. A Canadian premiere, The Wizard of Oz is vividly brought to life through a fusion of classical and contemporary ballet.

Dorothy and her ragtag crew—the playful Scarecrow, the tender-hearted Tin Man, and the brave Lion—forge a close bond as they journey through the magical land of Oz. The stunning visuals evolve from minimalist to magnificently elaborate as Dorothy discovers of the profound strength found in friendships built on empathy, bravery and loyalty.

This enchanting experience is a Canadian premiere, and just as audiences in Italy, New Zealand and Uruguay discovered, Alberta Ballet fans will leave with cherished memories and a renewed love for this timeless tale. Alberta Ballet is thrilled to add it to its repertoire of family ballets.
