Last April, the married couple left Ukraine for the purpose of raising money for Ukrainian humanitarian aid. Along with other dancers, they took part in multiple charity performances throughout Europe, Japan and the United States, where they raised over $800,000. They have relocated to Toronto and continue their efforts to support Ukraine.

This must-see show brings a fresh and fun perspective to the traditional tale about the innocence and purity of young love, transporting children and adults alike to a world of magic and wonder for the holiday season. Having had her education at the world renowned Bolshoi Ballet Academy, Tatiana Stepanova (Artistic Director), returned to her hometown of Odessa, Ukraine to become the Prima Ballerina for the Odessa State Ballet Company. For her excellence in the performing arts, Stepanova was awarded the honourary title of People’s Artist of Ukraine, a decoration awarded to outstanding art performers of Ukraine. Upon her many years of experience teaching in Canada, she noticed a lack of opportunity for young dancers in professional production, which led her to founding Toronto International Ballet Theatre in 2008 to promote classical ballet development in Canada.
