The Children of Theatre Street is a 1977 American documentary film about the Vaganova Academy of Russian Ballet directed by Robert Dornhelm and Earle Mack, narrated by Grace Kelly.

Reception[edit]

Time'sRichard Schick wrote that The Children of Theatre Street "never quite gets up on point", stating that the story is told in "a straightforward, quite artless manner."[1] The New York Times' Janet Maslin also panned the movie, calling it "earnest, plodding and thoroughly earthbound, a fine illustration of how easy it is to demystify artistry by trying too hard to understand it."[2]

The Children of Theatre Street was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature.[3][4]
