Tiptoe through the tutus

As Scottish Ballet gears up for a move to its new permanent home in Tramway, the company is throwing open the doors and inviting the public in to see exactly what they do when not putting on performances.

As well as demonstrating how they intend to make use of the Tramway space, the company will be hosting workshops in stage make-up and offering tips on designing and making your own tutu. The dancers themselves will be on hand to answer burning ballet questions like ‘going up on your toes — doesn’t it hurt?’, the Scottish Ballet Orchestra will provide background music, and there will be a series of showcases throughout the day.

Behind the Scenes at Scottish Ballet, Tramway, Glasgow, Sat 8 Sep.
