B A L L E T  C H A N G E D  M Y  L I F E: Ballet Hoo
Performance of Kenneth Macmillan’s Romeo & Juliet
2006  90minutes   Ballet  Channel 4

Channel 4 and Diverse joined forces with the Birmingham Royal Ballet and Youth at Risk to set young people in the West Midlands a challenge.

The closed world of ballet was opened up for 200 untrained but enthusiastic young people to turn their lives around through the demanding discipline of ballet.

3 x hour long documentaries, BALLET CHANGED MY LIFE:BALLET HOO, which followed the 200 for eighteen months, culminated in a final film capturing the excitement of an extraordinary performance of Kenneth Macmillan's ballet,
ROMEO & JULIET on 7 October, 2006.
