Children are in for a big surprise when Let’s All Dance ballet and theatre company present Teddy Bears’ Picnic at The Egg Theatre on Saturday 25 and Sunday 26 March, for children aged one to eight years.
Classical ballet is combined with physical theatre, gorgeous visuals and crystal-clear story-telling in this fresh and innovative production based on the well-loved nursery rhyme.
Audience members are invited to bring their own teddies along and there’s also an opportunity for children to have their photograph taken with the dancers at the end of the performance.
“It was a lovely ballet and the children really enjoyed it. It was just pitched at the right level. They were all dancing in the playground afterwards” – Head Teacher, Mayflower Primary School
