Description
By: Ariane Beeston
You don't stop. You never stop. Not if you want to be the best.
Clara has been dancing since she was three and knows exactly what she wants: a place at the Australian National Ballet School and a career as a principal dancer.
Elle, who accidentally found herself TikTok famous after a #balletfail went viral, is new to the dance world and thinks ballet needs to grand jete itself into the twenty-first century.
Ben, Elle's best friend, just wants to be able to dance en pointe and have his pick of both male and female solos.
Clara thinks Elle is a bit much. Elle thinks Clara's uptight. Ben's a bit stuck in the middle.
All three want to win the International Ballet Grand Prix at the Sydney Opera House. But when a scandal involving a famous dancer threatens their futures, the trio must put aside their differences to confront ballet's damaging traditions - and demand it do better.
