Madeline at the Ballet features the 12 little French schoolgirls in an on-stage adventure. Madeline longs to dance in the Happy Swan with the Paris Ballet. When ballet master Valmont selects all the schoolgirls for the production except Madeline, the normally plucky girl loses her spirit. It takes the help of a special friend to convince Valmont to give Madeline another shot at stardom. With hard work and encouragement, Madeline's dream comes true. This program is based on the book series by Ludwig Bemelmans. It is most appropriate for children ages two and older. ~ Sally Barber, Rovi
