In 1970, with Dianne Bell, Graham and Jane Goodbody, and Paul and Nicola Blakey, Wiseman formed Ballet Horizons (a forerunner of Ballet BC), serving as the founding Artistic Director and Choreographer. He choreographed a complete production of The Nutcracker in 1970. These photos are all taken from that production.

The Battle Scene, with mice fighting soldiers, is also pictured here. The designs for this scene were originally done as a Christmas card by Wiseman (pictured here). 5,000 cards were produced as a fund raiser for the Corps, and they sold out.

Wiseman remained with Ballet Horizons for two years.
