I really quite enjoyed this short ballet centred around the water-gathering scenes from Goethe's story. The elegant and characterful Sonia Arova is the Prima Ballerina who delivers a classy and stylish performance - I could swear narrated by Joan Collins - as the youngster takes her wand when her master is away, and commands the broom to fetch her water. This all goes to plan, but she doesn't know how to make it…
