Ballet Shoes
Starring Anton Du Beke (Strictly Come Dancing) as Great Uncle Matthew, the National Theatre’s five-star production of Ballet Shoes goes on a UK tour.
Adapted for the stage by Kendall Feaver and directed by Katy Rudd (The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry, Nanny McPhee), this truly ‘Spectacular’ (Guardian) reimagining of Noel Streatfeild’s beloved novel breathes fresh life into the classic story, while staying true to its heart.
In a crumbling house full of dinosaur bones and fossils, three adopted sisters, Pauline, Petrova and Posy, are learning who they are and discovering what they want to be.
Under the watchful eyes and guidance of their new guardians and some unlikely lodgers, they fight to pursue their individual passions; but in a world that wasn’t built for women with big ambitions, can they forge a future, keep their family together, and even learn a dance or two along the way?
