The Tales of Beatrix Potter

The costumes are amazing recreations of Beatrix Potter's characters. High points are Jeremy Fisher and the mice destroying the dolls' house. Squirrel Nutkin is pretty good too. The dancing is fantastic. And there's no CGI, Jemima is flying on a wire. And the dancers are neither slowed down nor speeded up. Their flying leaps are real! (I've always felt Jeremy Fisher was a distant cousin.)

There are hints of danger with the cat looking down the mousehole, the silent, blinking owl, and the strings of sausages that give the game away. The stories are much, MUCH darker! I'm glad no rats featured, and the pike that nearly gets Jeremy is a mere shadow.

Only flaw - it goes on just a bit too long, and the pastiche music gets a bit samey.
