Northern Ballet: Ugly Duckling – The Maltings

Introduce your little ones to live ballet with this charming retelling of Hans Christian Andersen’s popular fairytale.

Ugly Duckling is lonely and fed-up, ignored by those around her who think she is too ugly to fit in. She tries to make friends with fellow ducklings, as well as with frogs, cats and even a fox, but realising she is not like any of these animals, she is left sad and alone.

Follow the duckling on her journey as she overcomes her troubles and realises that she was beautiful all along.
