Kirkham Henry’s youth ballet company took to the stage to perform Coppelia.

The performance was held at the Kirk Theatre in Pickering on Wednesday, December 21.

Patron, former pupil Samantha Raine, now senior Répétiteur of the Royal Ballet Company, sent a message of encouragement to all the young people before the matinee performance.

Angela Kirham, Director of Kirkham Henry Performing Arts Centre, which is based in Malton, said: We’d like to thank everyone who helped make the ballet a success.

“ We have had such wonderful response from the audience, many of who watching a live on stage ballet for the first time. I’m so proud of our young people, who put on this full ballet , in such a short space of time.”

Kind regards and Merry Christmas
