This family friendly pairing of the stories from Mother Goose and the story of The Naughty Boy (who wouldn’t do his homework) comes from the genius of French composer Maurice Ravel. His affection of stories for young people delightfully sung and danced by the students of GVSU and the Junior Company of the Grand Rapids Ballet School promises to take the audience deep into Ravel’s imaginary worlds. Worlds of delight, scary stuff, and ultimately love.
