The Ugly Duckling: The Ballet

Feeling different, teased by his friends and not accepted by his family, the Ugly Duckling is sad and lonely.

Through a series of adventures he soon learns who he really is and his family realises it doesn’t matter what you look like but how good your heart is.

From the creators of The Princess & the Frog, Teddy Bears’ Picnic, Alice in Wonderland, The Princess & the Pea, Cinderella, The Magic Word, The Nutcracker and Sleeping Beauty comes this lovely ballet for the whole family. With the crystal-clear story telling, larger than life characters and gorgeous costumes you’d expect from this innovative company, The Ugly Duckling tackles themes of social acceptance and liking yourself in a child-friendly, humorous manner.

Great for the whole family, especially children aged 2-12, including people with special needs.
