Queensland Ballet\u2019s 2026 season will bring a program of major productions and new work to two Brisbane venues, giving Wynnum-Manly residents another city-based cultural option to consider when planning an evening or weekend outing.<\/p>\n
The season is the company\u2019s first curated under artistic director Ivan Gil-Ortega and is built around the idea of connection across generations, disciplines and cultures. Performances will be presented at QPAC and the Thomas Dixon Centre.<\/p>\n
The announced program includes Messa da Requiem<\/em>, a Strings Triple Bill<\/em> bringing together three distinct works, and a world-premiere reimagining of The Nutcracker<\/em>. The new Nutcracker<\/em> production is being reimagined by Derek Deane, who created Strictly Gershwin<\/em>, with sets and costumes by Lez Brotherston.<\/p>\n Queensland Ballet describes the season as combining epic masterpieces, contemporary creations and familiar classics. It may appeal both to regular ballet audiences and to people looking for a broader Brisbane arts experience from the bayside.<\/p>\n Specific performance dates, times, ticket prices and production-by-production booking details are not included in the available season overview.
