ANGELINA BALLERINA THE MOUSICAL to Play QPAC, 8 -12 Jan.

The national tour and Australian premiere of Angelina Ballerina The Mousical is based on award-winning children's book series by author Katharine Holabird and illustrator Helen Craig. Angelina Ballerina was first launched in 1983 and has since garnered huge international acclaim, with over 20 books published and an animated television series broadcast in Australia, UK and US amongst other countries.
Angelina Ballerina The Mousical transports audiences to Chipping Cheddar, as Angelina And friends discover that Camembert Academy has won the opportunity to appear in their favourite television program 'Dancing With Mice!'. It feels like a dream come true - but when the girls and boys have very different ideas for the show and just can't seem to agree on anything, it's up to Angelina As Dance Captain to ensure that the show goes ahead.
