Onisere and the Ballet Queen workshop
Onisere wants to be a ballet dancer but there’s just one problem: she’s black and she’s never seen any other ballet dancers who look like her. Enter, the ballet queen, Simbira, who takes Onisere, and her annoying, football mad little brother Tayo, on a fantastical journey through the history of black British ballet.
Join us for a fun filled session of dance and storytelling to find out more about the black dancers who blazed a trail through British ballet! For children aged 4-8 years old.
This workshop is part of Black History Month
This workshop is funded by The National Lottery Heritage Fund and brought to you by Libraries Connected & Oxygen Arts’ Black British Ballet project.
