Dogs Don’t Do Ballet

  • Show Information

Biff is a dog, but he’s not your usual kind of dog. Instead of chasing sticks and fetching newspapers, Biff loves tutus, tiaras and ballet! Watch as Biff sneaks into the class of the fearsome ballet teacher, Miss Polly, practises pirouettes in the park and finally gets to go the ballet. Featuring music from Fauré, Elgar and Tchaikovsky, this ballet is also an ideal introduction for young children to classical music.
Join Ballet Black for their first family ballet, based on the best-selling book by Anna Kemp and choreographed by Christopher Marney, full of fun, magic and one very special dog!
Age: 3yrs+
Running Time: 60mins
Post Show Talk: with author Anna Kemp, Sat 1 Nov 2pm
