What's Good To Do
“There are no small parts. Only weak children.”

Miss June teaches baby ballet in a crumbling village hall, drilling good-toes-naughty-toes into a generation of tiny dancers while her own dreams of greatness quietly rot. But when her final shot at fame vanishes, she doubles down, and fights to transform the end-of-term sharing into an all-consuming quest for glory. This is going to be the battle of a lifetime.

A surreal, razor-sharp dark comedy about ambition, delusion, and what happens when the dream refuses to die. 

Written and performed by Julia Grogan 

Developed and directed by Rachel Lemon
