Ballets Jazz Montréal brings Leonard Cohen’s extraordinary artistic legacy to life in Dance Me, a critically acclaimed contemporary dance production inspired by the music, poetry, and spirit of the legendary Montréal-born artist. Approved by Cohen during his lifetime, this exclusive creation is a powerful tribute that explores the grand cycles of existence through a series of evocative “seasons” drawn from his deeply reflective body of work.
Set to iconic songs including Suzanne, So Long, Marianne, Hallelujah, Dance Me to the End of Love, and Everybody Knows, Dance Me transforms Cohen’s words and music into a breathtaking visual and emotional experience. Choreographed by internationally acclaimed artists Andonis Foniadakis, Annabelle Lopez Ochoa, and Ihsan Rustem, the production showcases the remarkable talents of Ballets Jazz Montréal’s dancers alongside stunning lighting, scenography, videography, and musical design.
More than a dance performance, Dance Me is an immersive celebration of one of Canada’s most beloved cultural icons; an unforgettable evening where movement, music, and poetry converge in a moving tribute to Leonard Cohen’s enduring legacy.
Ballets Jazz Montréal would like to thank the Marjorie and Gerald Bronfman Foundation for the support given to the creation of the show.
