An original ballet based on Rita Gray’s beloved children’s story. 
Devised and choreographed by Madeline Jazz Harvey in collaboration with the company.

Based on the beloved children’s book, this original children’s ballet will elaborate on themes of community and empowerment presented in the story. The one-hour participatory event includes a book reading, dance along workshop, and performance. Children and families are invited to join us on stage for the barn yard scene. We’re excited to welcome Madeline back to The Playhouse (she last choreographed Hair for us in 2015), and she is a regular at Carolina Ballet Theatre when she isn’t teaching at Colorado State University.
