Fairy-tale Ballet

Children took over the stage at Bielany Chamber Hall

Pointe shoes, ballet skirts, tutus and Port de bras –  every ballet dancer knows these things as well as children, who came on 19 November to Bielany Chamber Hall for “Fairy-tale Ballet” spectacle. They had an occasion to learn the elements of the ballet costumes and the names of basic ballet positions.

However, the “Fairy-tale Ballet” spectacle was not only about learning. Most of all, it was great fun. Children, literally, took over the stage and listened to the breath-taking stories told by Mrs. Ballet (played by Ewa Budny). They watched the show of young adepts from the ballet schools who played the characters of birds of paradise, Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood and swans – dancing to the rhythm of beautiful melodies from the ballets in which those characters occur.

After the show, the young audience was invited on stage to learn to dance and have fun with the characters they admired few minutes ago.

MTeatr promises it wasn’t the last time we met with children! See you on 3 December at “Dancing stories of The Snow Queen”.
