Come and join us for a wonderful evening of champagne and ballet. Young adults and children from London Russian Ballet School (LRBS) will be performing on the 27th February in partnership with Trinity Hospice at the beautiful St Thomas’ theatre, Battersea.  From this performance we hope to raise awareness and generate much needed funds for these two local organisations and their valuable work in our community. 

LRBS is a non-profit organisation run by a former principal of the Bolshoi ballet.  LRBS brings Russian ballet to students regardless of background.  They have over 280 students.  It also has an outreach programme teaching over 180 children in Lambeth schools weekly.  Real training is offered by the Russian teachers to serious and amateur students in the drive to become a real Russian ballet school in London. 

The performance on the 27th will last an hour and a quarter with all proceeds being divided between Trinity and LRBS.

                            28-40 Battersea High Street,
