Angelina's children's ballet
ANGELINA Ballerina's Big Audition, a magical new show by English National Ballet, can be seen at the Futurist Theatre next week.
A fairly short ballet aimed at children, it is based on the fictional mouse created by author Katharine Holabird and illustrator Helen Craig 30 years ago.
It follows Angelina as she prepares to audition for the prestigious Camembert Academy.
Miss Lilly prepares Angelina for her big chance to dance in front of the judges and, although excited about the possibility of an exciting new adventure, Angelina worries about leaving home.
During her audition, Angelina meets lots of new friends including the hip-hopping AZ, musical Marco, who is a whiz on the bongos, and Vici, a traditional dancer with a twist.
Will Angelina’s dream of joining the academy end in tears, or will it be an exciting new chapter in her life?
Angelina Ballerina’s Big Audition is choreographed by Antony Dowson, with music from Tchaikovsky’s Nutcracker Suite arranged by English National Ballet’s music director, Gavin Sutherland.
The sets and costumes have been inspired by the new Angelina Ballerina CGI-animated TV series airing on Nick Jnr UK this autumn, and by the original book illustrations.
The show can be seen on Wednesday and Thursday, at 11am and 5.30pm.
