Remember the fairy tale about the ugly duckling, in which an amazing white swan grew out of a small ugly chick? Its plot is a bit similar to the activities of the Krasnoyarsk Choreographic College. Clumsy children come to this educational institution, who at first do not quite correctly perform the necessary movements. However, over time, thanks to natural inclinations and patience, real ballet and dance professionals are formed from students.
About the school

The organization of this event was carried out at a decent level. There were many rehearsals. Especially for the performance, costumes and scenery were made.
