We offer both classical performance experiences such as The Nutcracker, The Sleeping Beauty and Swan Lake as well as quality ballet lessons taught by Royal Academy of Dance trained and registered teacher, Alice Mackinnon.
We aim to build not only the technique ability of our dancers but also their confidence, celebrating every step of progress and allowing equal opportunities for all.

Audition Information
Our next auditions will be held in January 2025 in Dunfermline and Lochgelly.
This year dancers will take part in a 4 week programme working through ballet technique, production choreography and acting-for-dancers workshops. We hope that auditioning over 4 weeks will allow dancers to show the FBC team attributes such as work ethic, commitment, team spirit as well as their dance and performance skills.
All dancers will find out if they were successful or unsuccessful within two weeks of the audition.

Our Vison
We aim to bring the magic of classical ballet to local children. All principal and ensemble roles will be danced by local dancers between the ages of 5 to 18 on stage in full costume.
Alongside progressing the dancers classical technique and knowledge, we really pride ourselves on creating a production where all cast members feel valued, confident and well prepared for the stage. Have a look through the photos of our previous productions, The Nutcracker and The Sleeping Beauty! The smiles on our dancers faces will tell you all you need to know.
-
Our Ethos
We believe in inclusivity and want to make performing ballet accessible to all children. Please let us know if your dancer has any additional needs that we can help support on audition day and if successful, through rehearsals.
Our goal, above all is for each child to leave our production experience proud of what they have achieved and glowing in confidence.

Reviews
‘I Loved being part of the Nutcracker, I loved being part of the company and making new friends, everything was amazing, all the rehearsals were so much fun and I learned loads.’ - Miss L
‘My daughter (Age 7) had the best time. She loved every minute and says Miss Alice is the best ever. A week on from the show and she still tells me most mornings she dreamt of the Nutcracker when she was asleep. She can’t wait to audition for Sleeping Beauty. I think she will be a Fife Ballet Co member for life if she can!’ - Mrs B
‘I love going to rehearsals because I think it’s a great experience and it has helped me to become really confident. Miss Alice has been amazing and makes things so much fun. She explains our moves really well. I can’t believe our show is so close, I never want rehearsals to stop!’ - Miss L
