Nutcracker Family Workshop (Relaxed)
Why join a relaxed workshop?
It’s Clara’s Christmas party, and everyone’s invited!
Inspire your young person through the magic of movement and joy of ballet, with these fun and festive workshops. Sessions will uncover the story of the ballet through dance, mime and music inspired by English National Ballet’s beautiful new production of Nutcracker.
With an instantly recognisable score and wonderful choreography, Nutcracker holds special memories for all ballet lovers around the world. This is a unique opportunity to step onto one of London’s great stages to learn new steps and experience the excitement of dancing, taught by an expert associate artist and accompanied by a live musician.
A perfect way to spend a morning as a family and enjoy some Christmas magic together!
No dance experience required: all young dancers must be accompanied by a participating adult.
