Hey gorgeous gals and dapper gents, it's your girl Emma here, back with another sizzling summer instalment of Denton's Tutu News. The heatwave may be here, but that doesn't mean our love for ballet has to slow down! ☀️🔥
This month, Denton's dance scene is bubbling with exciting new opportunities and performances, perfect for all you twirling enthusiasts and tutu fashionistas! 🎉
The Big News:
Our beloved Denton Ballet Company is hosting a brand-new summer program, "Ballet By The Beach"! 🌊 This amazing initiative combines two of my favourite things - ballet and sunshine - with a series of open-air classes in the picturesque Denton Town Square. Whether you're a seasoned ballerina or just starting out, there's a class for everyone, from beginners' barre work to intermediate pointe lessons. The atmosphere is relaxed and inviting, so bring your mates, a picnic blanket, and your most stylish summer tutu! ✨
Denton Dance Theatre's "Swan Lake" Soiree:
Prepare for an elegant evening as Denton Dance Theatre returns to the stage with a glamorous production of Swan Lake. This iconic ballet is a real treat for the senses, and DTT has gone all out with an utterly dazzling new costume design. My personal highlight? The ethereal, shimmering white tutus worn by the corps de ballet, they really bring a touch of fairytale magic to the production. Don't forget to grab your best white shoes and prepare to be transported to a world of romantic fantasy! 🩰👑
For the Fashionistas:
Can't talk about summer ballet without discussing the must-have accessory: the sun hat! Gone are the days of simply pairing your tutu with a basic ballet bun. Summer 2023 is all about a bit of fun and playful style, so embrace wide-brimmed straw hats adorned with gorgeous ribbons and blooms. You can find some real gems at "The Hat Hut" downtown - they've got styles that scream "ballet beauty meets beachy babe!" 👒💐
