Men in What?

Men in Tutu's of course!

Les Ballets Grandiva's - Men In Tutus

Grandiva has been hailed by critics as “The greatest exponents of all male comedy ballet in the world today”. With $3 million in costumes, smash hit “Men In Tutus” is a show designed for male, female, young and old.

It’s the largest company of its kind in the world, with twenty (20) of the best international male ballet dancers from thirteen (13) countries. These handsome and beautiful soloists have performed with renowned ballet companys including Bolshoi and Kirov Ballets, New York Ballet, Paris Opera Ballet, American Ballet Theatre, the Royal Ballet, National Ballet of Canada, Royal Swedish Ballet, English National Ballet, Royal Danish Ballet, to name a few.

Grandiva’s “Men In Tutus” is the ultimate send up of both classical and contemporary ballet. The combination of brilliant dancing technique, tongue in cheek and blatant humour with intentional foibles, dancing mishaps and of course hissy fits by men playing both male and female roles.


I am off to see this tonight at The Empire Theatre in Toowoomba (someone just piked out and flatly said "no") ... Im not normally one to sit through the Ballet, although I have to admit that I haven't been to the Ballet for fear that I might fall asleep during it (just ask Evan about what happens when we sit down to watch a movie at 8.30pm!).

I am hoping that I will enjoy this and since we're going to the early session, Im hoping that I wont embarrass myself! LOL

Helen.
