Below are some of our projects and programs which you can support:
Nuit: 2023 Luminato Festival presentation
CURATE: Support our artists
CREATE: Bring new work to life
CULTIVATE: Support our community
Nuit at THE Luminato Festival
Help Us bring this masterful work Back to life!
Nuit is legendary Canadian choreographer Jean-Pierre Perreault’s seminal work exploring the individual among the collective through fiery, demanding contemporary dance.
This demanding, fiery work, performed in half-light, expresses a troubling, subterranean vulnerability, rooted in the unflinching integrity that its author succeeded in transmitting to the dancers, who become percussion instruments, beating the ground in intoxication and finally exhaustion. The singular materiality of Nuit and the interpenetration among the multiple components that Perreault created make this a major work not only in Perreault’s legacy but in the history of Canadian choreography.
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. From our performing arts series, Bright Nights, to our late-night dance fest Night Shift, to our newest livestream series Citadel LIVE we work to support the vision and talent of exceptional artists dedicated to moving audiences through dance.
create

A visually rich, emotionally arresting tapestry nourished by talented choreographers and gifted artists and collaborators from many disciplines. Through remount initiatives, the company also dedicates itself to the preservation of important Canadian dance work and makes iconic repertoire available to a new generation of dancers and audiences.
Cultivate
