"Ballet Shoes" - In Theaters August 26, 2008

"Ballet Shoes" - Emma Watson, Yasmin Paige, and Lucy Boynton headline director Sandra Goldbacher's made for (British) television adaptation of author Neil Streatfield's classic novel "Ballet Shoes." The setting is 1930s London. Orphans Pauline (Emma Watson), Petrova (Yasmin Paige) and Posy Fossil (Lucy Boynton) have all been adopted by eccentric explorer Professor Brown (aka "Gum"), and raised as sisters by Brown's benevolent niece Sylvia (Emilia Fox). Before the three girls get to know their adventurous adoptive father, however, Gum vanishes for over a decade. Though her faithful retainer Nana (Victoria) does her best to keep the family afloat, Sylvia simply can't keep up with the demands of raising a family. When Sylvia's health starts to suffer, she decides to take in lodgers. The first to arrive in the household are lively academics Dr. Smith (Harriet Walter) and Dr. Jakes (Gemma Jones), followed in short order by curvy dance instructor Theo Dane (Lucy Cohu) and kind-but-pensive Mr. Simpson (Marc Warren). As the non traditional family begins to see their lives changed by these new arrivals in ways that they never anticipated, Pauline, Petrova, and Posy enroll in th elocal theater school and set about establishing themselves as stars of the stage. But while Pauline dreams of becoming and world famous actress and Posy longs to grow into a graceful ballerina, Petrova just wants to take to the sky as an aviator. Now, as they attempt to accomplish their goal of going down in history, these three sisters will go to the ends of the earth to track down their father and keep the family together.

"Ballet Shoes" gets a one week United States theatrical run before its September 2, 2008 U.S. DVD debut, thanks to the popularity of "Harry Potter" star Emma Watson.
