The girls were in the ballet "Cinderella" as well as a contemporary show this spring. It's super fun to see how much they keep improving. They had such pretty costumes, too!
I can't even remember what they were in these costumes. Shopkeepers? Hatmakers? Fan merchants? Something like that.
These costumes were for Royal Guests at the Prince's Ball. I think. The ballet manages to add quite a lot of characters to the story of Cinderella. :) I love it, though. Prokofiev's music is the best. My second-favorite ballet, after his "Romeo and Juliet."
Junie and Daisy were both on pointe for a couple of their dances in this ballet. Fun for them.

And Daisy was in Fairy Corps too. She was so excited to be wearing a real classical tutu!

And here are a few pictures from the dress rehearsal.
I love this leap of Junie's

Good little ballerinas. I love them.
Such a delight!
ReplyDeleteThe costumes alone are almost enough of a reason to justify any amount of juggling schedules and driving to practices that ballet entails! So great. And I’ve always been able to easily tell Junie and Daisy apart, but in these photos they look more alike than ever! Without Daisy’s glasses I might have been unsure in several pictures!
