Information - Onisere and the Ballet Queen at Ipswich County Library
Join Oxygen Arts at Ipswich County Library for a fun filled session of dance and storytelling to find out more about the Black dancers who blazed a trail through British ballet! Suitable for children aged 4-8 years.
Onisere wants to be a ballet dancer but there’s just one problem: she’s black and she’s never seen any other ballet dancers who look like her. Enter, the ballet queen, Sandie Mae, who takes Onisere, and her annoying, football mad little brother Tayo, on a fantastical journey through the history of Black British ballet. A journey that begins in 1940s London, and takes in Glasgow, New York, Paris, Los Angeles and Johannesburg before landing back in the UK.
