Dance of the Earth

Dance of the Earth follows Rose and her children, Nina and Walter, as they navigate love, ambition, and identity through the transformative power of dance and music, set against the artistic and social upheavals of 1875–1921 Europe.

From backstage to centre stage and theatres of war, Dance of the Earth is a sweeping family saga.

Set against the backdrops of London’s gilded Alhambra music hall, Diaghilev’s dazzling Ballets Russes, and the upheavals of the First World War, Rose and her children, Nina and Walter, pursue their ambitions, loves, and dreams. Dance and music become both sanctuary and self-expression, shaping their identities and helping each of them find their place in the world.

Spanning the years 1875 to 1921 — an era of profound artistic and social change — fact and fiction interweave in this tapestry of birth, sacrifice, and renewal. Art — both serious and comic — is at the story’s beating heart.
