The Ballerina & Me DVD

Here is a dream come true for every young girl who wants to be a ballerina. First you meet choreographer/ballerina Jamey Leverett coming off stage with a bouquet of roses in hand. Then you (the camera) are invited backstage to the dressing room where she invites you to come to the studio the next day. The following morning, Jamie takes her new student (the viewer) to the dance studio where they begin lessons, learning the basic ballet warm-up exercises and positions. The teacher tells her viewer that she is preparing to take part in the Nutcracker and gets the idea to invite her student to be part of it too. She teaches her the part of a snowflake. When the big day arrives and just before the curtain goes up, Jamey whispers to her pupil that she looks wonderful. The curtain rises and the younger viewer can now spin and dance, taking part in this wonderful production of the Nutcracker Ballet. Approximately 25 minutes. Ages 3-10.
