British Youth Music Theatre: Worn Out

Fri 01 Aug 2025 - Sun 03 Aug 2025
British Youth Music Theatre and Lowry present an empowering new musical retelling of The 12 Dancing Princesses.
 
In the city-state of Zloriv, King Kasimir’s daughters are trapped—expected to smile, obey, and marry. But when they slip away each night, their worn-out shoes hide more than just a love for dancing. As they uncover a rising revolution that could shatter their father’s rule, will they follow tradition or fight for freedom?
 
Featuring a playful score that mixes classic and contemporary Broadway with a pop twist by Meg McGrady and an exhilarating book by Zoe Morris, Worn Out transforms the classic Grimm Tale of The 12 Dancing Princesses into a thrilling musical, where fairy-tale fantasy meets the fire of female rebellion.
 
Zoe Morris (Bookwriter & Lyricist) and Meg McGrady (Composer & Additional Lyrics)
