Hmm. That must have changed a few months ago then. It was still definitely ballet girls a few months ago.

ballet girls
Do ballet girls get the chance to stay on or do they have to be asked?

Re: ballet girls
They are on 6 month contracts. In London, at the end of each contract period, most girls will leave, but some do stay and get moved to different teams. Occasionally a ballet girl will return to the show after doing something else for 6 months. No idea how it will work in the US, but I suppose we will find out before too long.

I can confirm, ballet girls are inside the dresses!!Billy Whiz wrote:Yes I think we all got our wires a bit crossed
Re: Ballet Girls
Does that include the last dress on, i.e., the one that runs across the stage and deliberately falls down?balletgirlmum wrote:I can confirm, ballet girls are inside the dresses!!

Re: Ballet Girls
In the early days that one (the one that falls down) used to be the same person who is 'The Inspector' in the middle of the police line up. May have changed a bit since then.

Re: Ballet Girls
Well, the dancing dresses in the current cast in london are all ballet girls, my daughter finds it very confined, and although loves the tap dance she is pleased when she is out of the dress!!ITK wrote:patc wrote:Does that include the last dress on, i.e., the one that runs across the stage and deliberately falls down?balletgirlmum wrote:I can confirm, ballet girls are inside the dresses!!
