Goldilocks is a mischievous little girl with hair as bright as gold. Always on the look-out for an adventure, one day her curiosity leads her to a house full of many surprises.

Goldilocks & the Three Bears is the latest in the company’s award-winning series of Short Ballets for Small People, following on from the hugely successful Tortoise & the Hare, Ugly Duckling, Three Little Pigs and Elves & the Shoemaker, all of which have been adapted by CBeebies.

Daniel de Andrade of Northern Ballet said: “I am thrilled at how extensively we are touring Goldilocks & the Three Bears and we look forward to giving even more audiences the chance to experience this truly magical production. Our children’s ballets offer a unique opportunity to experience live dance and music for the first time through performances designed specifically with young children in mind.”

Tickets cost £6. Call 01582 60 20 80 to book.
