0:02:43 > 0:02:46This is really exciting!
0:02:46 > 0:02:49Let's find out what we're playing today!
0:02:54 > 0:02:56I have a firefighter's helmet,
0:02:56 > 0:02:58a caveperson's outfit, and clown shoes.
0:02:58 > 0:03:00BEEP! BEEP!
0:03:00 > 0:03:02Let's try something else.
0:03:04 > 0:03:07What am I wearing now?
0:03:07 > 0:03:10A hooded top, a vest,
0:03:10 > 0:03:13comfortable trousers for bending and stretching
0:03:13 > 0:03:15and soft shoes.
0:03:15 > 0:03:18So what are we playing today?
0:03:18 > 0:03:21I know. We're playing at being ballet dancers,
0:03:21 > 0:03:25and we'll dance on the stage. I love dancing!
0:03:25 > 0:03:27What do we need to know?
0:03:27 > 0:03:31Ballet is a type of dance that takes a lot of practice.
0:03:31 > 0:03:35The best ballet dancers spend years trying to perform on the stage.
0:03:38 > 0:03:41Boy ballet dancers lift weights
0:03:41 > 0:03:45to make themselves strong enough to lift the girls.
0:03:45 > 0:03:49In a ballet company, there is a corps de ballet
0:03:49 > 0:03:51and a prima ballerina.
0:03:51 > 0:03:56She is the lead dancer who has her own special moves and costumes.
0:03:56 > 0:04:01The corps de ballet is the name we use for all the other dancers.
0:04:01 > 0:04:04Some ballet dancers wear point shoes,
0:04:04 > 0:04:08the toe flattened so the dancer can dance on their tip-toes.
0:04:08 > 0:04:15Ballet shoes have to be made by a specialist shoemaker.
0:04:15 > 0:04:19That's what we need to remember. Is there anything else?
0:04:19 > 0:04:21Woh!
0:04:21 > 0:04:24A bouquet of flowers.
0:04:24 > 0:04:27Smells lovely. I wonder what I need these for.
0:04:27 > 0:04:29I guess I'll find out.
0:04:29 > 0:04:32We have everything we need. Let's go!
0:04:32 > 0:04:34# Let's play! #
0:04:34 > 0:04:36Hey, Rebecca!
0:04:36 > 0:04:38Flowers - for me?
0:04:38 > 0:04:41Uh? No. Can you guess what we're playing today?
0:04:41 > 0:04:44- Erm...- Hold on. Let me give you a clue.
0:04:44 > 0:04:47Hoo-hoo! Are you playing clumsy clowns?
0:04:47 > 0:04:50No, we're playing ballet dancers!
0:04:50 > 0:04:54- Mind you don't drop those flowers! - I won't. Oh!
0:04:54 > 0:04:56- Who put that there?- You did!
0:04:56 > 0:04:58Oh.
0:04:58 > 0:05:00- Have fun.- Will do. See you!
0:05:00 > 0:05:02# Let's play! #
0:05:02 > 0:05:04Let's play ballet dancers.
0:05:04 > 0:05:06Wow!
0:05:10 > 0:05:11Wow!
0:05:11 > 0:05:13# Let's play! #
0:05:16 > 0:05:18Woh!
0:05:18 > 0:05:19I'm on a stage!
0:05:19 > 0:05:21In a theatre!
0:05:21 > 0:05:23It must be great to be onstage,
0:05:23 > 0:05:26all that performing and bowing.
0:05:26 > 0:05:28Thank you!
0:05:28 > 0:05:30Yes, thank you very much.

0:05:38 > 0:05:41Who's she? She's pretty fancy!
0:05:41 > 0:05:45Wow! That must be where the audience sits.
0:05:45 > 0:05:47It must be really scary onstage,
0:05:47 > 0:05:50everyone in the audience looking down on you.
0:05:50 > 0:05:52I'd probably want to go...
0:05:52 > 0:05:54Excuse me, coming through.
0:05:54 > 0:05:57It's really busy. They're getting ready for a show.
0:05:57 > 0:06:01Better find out what I'm to do. Maybe that woman can help me.
0:06:01 > 0:06:04She looks friendly enough. I think.
0:06:04 > 0:06:07I wonder if you can help.
0:06:07 > 0:06:10I'm a ballet dancer and I guess you are, too.
0:06:10 > 0:06:12A ballet dancer?!
0:06:12 > 0:06:14A...ballet...dancer?!
0:06:14 > 0:06:17I'm THE ballerina.

0:06:19 > 0:06:22Sorry, your ladyship.
0:06:22 > 0:06:26I'm waiting for my male lead dancer.
0:06:26 > 0:06:28Maybe it's you?
0:06:28 > 0:06:30Yes, I guess it is.
0:06:30 > 0:06:33Where have you been? Are you warmed up?
0:06:33 > 0:06:36Erm...I feel OK. It's a little bit chilly.
0:06:36 > 0:06:39These theatres can be really draughty.
0:06:39 > 0:06:42GO! Get warmed up...in the warm-up room.
0:06:42 > 0:06:44Warm-up room?
0:06:44 > 0:06:46That's where I'm going...now.

0:06:56 > 0:06:59That's because this is the warm-up room.
0:06:59 > 0:07:04Great. It's where I need to be because I am here to get warmed up.
0:07:07 > 0:07:09- Excuse me?- Yes.
0:07:09 > 0:07:10What are you doing?
0:07:10 > 0:07:13I'm getting warmed up.

0:07:59 > 0:08:02Now you're ready to practice a lift.
0:08:02 > 0:08:03A lift?!
0:08:03 > 0:08:06The trickiest part of the show. To lift
0:08:06 > 0:08:08the prima ballerina.
0:08:08 > 0:08:11I've carried some shopping in my time...
0:08:11 > 0:08:13It's a bit harder than that.
0:08:13 > 0:08:15- Is it?- Yes. Let's give it a go.
0:08:15 > 0:08:19That's it, behind me, and hands on my hips.

0:08:22 > 0:08:25Oh! Sorry.
0:08:26 > 0:08:28Crikey!

0:08:31 > 0:08:33Lifts are really hard!
0:08:33 > 0:08:35She jumps in the air, I have to catch her.
0:08:35 > 0:08:37I can't do this.
0:08:37 > 0:08:39Oh, hold on!
0:08:39 > 0:08:40I remember, do you?
0:08:40 > 0:08:44Boy ballet dancers lift weights to make them strong enough
0:08:44 > 0:08:48to lift the girls. I need to make myself strong.
0:09:04 > 0:09:06Sweet!
0:09:06 > 0:09:11Oh! Are you ready to do some lifting?
0:09:11 > 0:09:15So ready they'll have to invent a new word for ready.
