Pointe shoes & showbiz

Kim Bailey Productions & Primarily Dance

Pointe shoes & Showbiz follows dancer, Lesley Bandy, on her journey from dance classes in Auckland to the stages of London, Paris, and Las Vegas. A ballerina turned showgirl to contemporary dancer, moving to arts management, this chameleon of dance has done it all!

Running multimillion dollar corporate events with the stars in Vegas, touring the world with the Chippendales, and project management for Universal Studios & MGM Grand’s parkwide Halloween events to consulting on Dance Moms. Dancing en pointe while balancing the life of a showgirl.

Lesley speaks intimately about the highs and lows of showbiz, three husbands, dance partners, work families and many adventures.

Award winning dancers and collaborators Tabitha Dombroski and Björn Åslund bring these stories to life with beauty, elegance and some surprises.

World class entertainment on a small-scale, Pointe shoes & Showbiz is a must see in Wellington this September.
