- I'm angelina ballerina.
Today, I'm playing "mouse-games"
With my sister, polly,
And my best friend, alice.
Up next is the amazing gymnast
From chipping cheddar...
Alice nimbletoes!
She's going to try
A very difficult move.
Will she be able to do it?
[Gasps]
She did it!
But what does the judge say?
A perfect score!
- [Laughs]
Thank you, everyone,
For your support,
Especially my best friend,
Angelina!
[Both giggle]
- Girls,
It's time for alice to leave
For her ice-skating practice.
- Already?
But she just got here.
- Don't worry.
We'll plan another play date
For you soon.
- Alice is my very best friend,
But now that we go
To different schools,
We barely ever see each other.
And that's no fun at all.

You could do a spin on ice.

That looked kind of like
This ballet move,
A tour en l'air.
- Ice-skating
Is so much like dancing.
- Except for one
Big difference.
It's dancing on ice.
[Both giggle]
I really wish you could
See me perform tonight.
- Well, stop wishing,
Because I thought of a way
We can both
See each other's shows.
- You did?
That's great!
Whee!
But how?
- Since my show starts first,
You can come with me
To see it right now.
Then after,
We'll rush back here--

We'll make it if we hurry.
- Okay!
- And, angelina, guess what?

You're not leaving before
You practice your footwork,
Are you?

Of course not.
Angelina, what if
I finish up here first
And then meet you
At your recital?
- Okay, but hurry!
Oh, what were you
Going to tell me?
- No time now.
I'll tell you later.
Meet you at camembert!
- Right.
See you soon!
- Okay, coach,
I'm practicing my footwork.
I'd better make this fast
So I can go
To angelina's recital.

Ooh!
That might've been
A little too fast.
- Okay, class,
There's not much time
To rehearse.
From the top!
And one and two.

- And seven and eight.
- You're rushing the b*at,
Angelina.
- Sorry, ms. Mimi!
I just want to make sure
Our show starts on time.
- I don't see any reason
Why it wouldn't.
- Um, ms. Mimi?
There may be one reason.
This piano key is sticking.
- Oh dear.
I hope I don't have to call
The piano repairman.
Or maybe mr. Hopper
Can fix it.
- Can he come now
Or seconds from now?
- I doubt he can be here
That fast.
- Wait right here, class.
I have to get the word out
To our guests
That our recital
Will start a little late.
- A little late?
Oh, no.
This will mess up
My whole plan.
I'll be right back...
I hope.
[Panting]
Alice!

Angelina!
Both: I was just on my way
To see your show!
- Mine is starting late
And since your pageant
Is going to begin soon...
[Panting]
We'd better hurry!
Then after your pageant,
We'll go back to camembert
For my recital.
- Angelina, I still have
Something to tell you.
- What is it?

That we go to different schools?

Two steps.
The first step is a latin step
Called the cha-cha.
, , Cha-cha-cha,
, , Cha-cha-cha.
The next one is a hip-hop step,
And all you have to do is jump.
Jump, jump.
Together it goes:
, , Cha-cha-cha, , .
Jump, jump.
, , Cha-cha-cha, , .
Jump, jump.
Now you try!
[All cheer]
- I started dancing at age two.
- I was four years old
When I started dancing.
- I started dancing
When I was five years old.
The dance that we're doing
Is a mixture
Of latin movement and hip-hop.
- Latin dance is flowy
And hip-hop is sharper.
- It took us about a month
To learn the piece,
And then it took much,
Much longer than that
To make sure
It was perfect to perform.
- What I love about dancing:
I'm with my friends
All the time,
And it requires practice
Every single day,
And it's really fun.
- Me encanta bailar.
I love to dance.
- Dance is something
That everyone can do.
If you want to dance,
Then dance.
- I'm angelina ballerina.
Sometimes you have small ideas,
Sometimes you have big ideas...
And sometimes they are
Really, really huge!
- Today, class,
I would like for you
To think of a fairy tale story
That we can put on
In the camembert theatre.
- Ooh, I want to do
Jackie and the beanstalk!
- Mm...
A story with a giant in it.
Interesting idea.
- Sleeping beauty
Would be much better.
- But not as good as robot boy
And the flying monkeys.
[All laughing]
- A.z., That's not a fairy tale,
And you know it!
- Aw.
- Oh, ms. Mimi!
Jackie and the beanstalk
Has giants and beanstalks
And sword fighting.
- Well, we've never done
A giant before,
Probably because
It's quite difficult.
- Difficult?
It'll be no problem at all.
Making a giant is easy.
I can do it,
And alice can help!
- Uh...can i?
- All right,
Jackie and the beanstalk it is.
- Yes!
- [Sighs]
Tant pis!
Sleeping beauty was
The only thing I wanted to do.
- Gracie, you can play jackie!
- [Gasp] fantastic.
I can't wait!
- Okay, alice,
This is how
We are going to make the giant.
- It looks like
A big pair of pants.
- Exactly!
You see, alice,
The giant is so big,
That's all you can see.
- What are all those zigzags?
- The ropes that will work him,
Like a puppet.
[Giggles]
- But isn't it
Kind of complicated, angelina?
- Don't worry, alice.
It'll be great:
The biggest giant
Camembert has ever seen!
- I love my mum and dad.
'Cause I know that if I ever
Need to make something,
They're always there to help me.
- I can't believe
We're doing this again.
- Oh, come on,
You know you really enjoy it.
- [Chuckles]
Of course I do.
- I've made these patches
To go on the giant's pants.
- How's everybody doing?
- One pair of giant's pants,
Nearly finished.
- Uh...
Sorry dad,
I think they need to be bigger.
- What about the boots?
- Um...
Maybe they should be
A bit bigger.
- And what about the patches?
- Hmm...
Maybe they should be a bit--
All: bigger?
[All laugh]
- [Laughing]
Well, they should.
- I'm a bit worried that
The giant won't be big enough.
- Those pants will be huge,
Angelina!

She looks so sad.

Oh.

Ms. Mimi's not sad.
She only seems sad
'Cause I'm playing this.

I'll start crying.
- It's the music
That makes you feel sad.
- Do you think
You can play a tune
That makes something feel...
Big?

I'm listening to my friend
Yibiao play the flute.
Did you know
That flutes have been around
Since the time of the cavemen?
Flutes are wind instruments,
Just like recorders,
That means air makes the sound.
Do you see how yibiao
Puckers his lips
To push air through the flute
And his fingers cover the holes
To make the different pitches?
I want to play flute
At the next camembert parade.
It's easier to carry
Than a tuba.
Gracias, yibiao!
