Northern Ballet will be at the Liverpool Playhouse for the first time with Ugly Duckling, a ballet designed especially for children.

The perfect opportunity to introduce little ones to the magic of live dance, music and theatre, this brand new production will have three performances at the Liverpool Playhouse on Friday March 15.

Ugly Duckling has choreography from Northern Ballet dancers Sebastian Loe, an alumnus of the Royal Ballet School, and Dreda Blow, who trained at the National Ballet School of Canada and later the Royal Conservatory, The Hague, with music arrangement from John Wagstaff.

Aimed at children three and up, it is approximately 45 minutes long.
