Little Dancer

Little Dancer is a sweeping new musical inspired by Marie van Goethem, the young dancer immortalised in Edgar Degas’ celebrated sculpture. Set amid the beauty and danger of Belle Époque Paris, the story follows Marie’s determination to escape poverty and be recognised on her own terms, while examining the complicated relationship between artist, model, ambition and power. The musical features a score by Tony and Olivier Award winners Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty, direction and choreography by Susan Stroman, and a cast led by New York City Ballet principal Tiler Peck.
