A talented young dancer from Burnham has secured a place in a prestigious national ballet production after impressing judges at a highly competitive audition. Eighteen-year-old Serena Hennah has been selected to perform in a production of Giselle by the English Youth Ballet. The young performer is currently taking part in an intensive rehearsal programme designed to mirror life in a professional ballet company. EYB director Janet Lewis said the organisation aims to give young dancers the chance to experience professional-level performances. “English Youth Ballet aims to provide performance experience to aspiring young dancers in beautiful venues close to where they live,” she said.
