The story ballet is set in a whimsical garden world: butterflies flutter, Dew Drops sparkle, Garden Sprites frolic, and a colorful parade of dancing vegetables brings the garden to life. With an 11 a.m. curtain and a playful, easy-to-follow theme, it is a gentle first ballet for preschoolers and early-elementary children, and a chance to see local young dancers on a real stage. Tickets are sold through the Irving Arts Center box office online; the box office is also open Tuesday to Saturday from noon to 5 p.m. and one hour before performances. The center's galleries are free to browse before or after the show (Tuesday–Saturday, noon to 5 p.m.). ## Similar picks in Dallas–Fort Worth - [JumpstART: Stories & Art — Irving Arts Center](https://grassyknees.com/dallas-fort-worth/activities/jumpstart-stories-and-art-irving-arts-center--listing-e95ee72460ecdfda364d886f) — Thu, Nov 5 (+2 more dates) · 10:00 AM – 11:00 AM · Irving Arts Center — Suite 200 · Ages 2+ · Free · checked Oct 27.
