The Courtyard is preparing itself for an extraordinary dance-theatre production next month.

The Globetrotter's Ball, which is being staged from April 5-8, tells the story of a single atom as it travels the world, transforming itself from being part of a stone to being part of the chain of life; the eye of an insect, the flesh of a bird, part of a leaf....

Members of four local youth dance groups and Herefordshire College of Art and Design performing arts students will be taking part - a total of 60 dancers with an age range from seven to 36.

Directed by Ellie Parker and choreographed by Tamara Cater and Michelle Holder, this is a show not to be missed.
