The Little Princess Children's Workshopback to events

Feb-28, 03:30 PM to Feb-28, 05:00 PM

Springfield Ballet’s workshops engage young participants (age 3–8) in an afternoon of fun and culture which includes a craft, story time, dancing, and games. They are great introductions to the art of ballet and serve well to enrich the lives of young students, both dancers and non-dancers.

Children should wear comfortable attire (stretch/sweat pants and t-shirt or leotard and tights), bare feet or dance shoes. They will make a craft that coordinates with the ballet, and they will be read a synopsis of the ballet. They will also dance some of the male and female roles to the original compositions, as well as play games and have fun! At the end of the workshop, 4:40pm, see your dancer perform what they learned!

This February join us for an inspiring tale, The Little Princess. Meet Sara Crewe, a rich girl left at a boarding school with a huge heart and a big imagination. When a tragic turn of events leaves Sara working as a maid, she learns to never give up hope, discovers true friendship, and even meets a monkey.

 Cost: $10 per child

All workshops are for children ages 3–8, no dance experience required.
Registration and payment deadline is the Friday prior to the workshop.

REGISTER EARLY, workshops do sell out!
