Founded in 1939 by Gweneth Lloyd and Betty Farrally, the Royal Winnipeg Ballet holds the double distinction of being Canada�s premier ballet company and the longest continuously operating ballet company in North America.

In 1953, the Company received its royal title, the first granted under the reign of Queen Elizabeth II. http://rwb.org
