A family of dancers

The women in the Watson family are all crazy about ballet. These days, Alice Watson gives
ballet lessons, but for many years, she was a dancer with the National Ballet Company.
Her mother, Hannah, also had a full-time job there, making costumes for the dancers.
Alice’s daughter Demi started learning ballet as soon as she could walk. ‘I never taught
her,’ says Alice, ‘because she never let me.’ Now aged sixteen, Demi is a member of the
ballet company where her mother was the star dancer for many years.
Alice’s husband, Jack, is an electrician. They met while he was working at a theatre where
she was dancing and got married soon after. ‘When Demi started dancing, the house was
too small for her and Alice to practise in so I made the garage into a dance studio. Now the
living room is nice and quiet when I’m watching television!’ he says.
Last month, Demi was invited to dance in the ballet Swan Lake. Of course, Alice and
Hannah were in the audience and even Jack was there, which made it very special for
Demi. Jack says, ‘I’m not that interested in ballet myself but it’s fantastic seeing Demi taking
her first steps with Alice’s old company!’ Demi was wearing a dress that Hannah made for
Alice many years before.
‘It was very exciting for all of us,’ says Hannah. ‘Demi’s way of dancing is very like Alice’s.
I know I’m her grandmother, but I think she has a great future!’
