A Girl Can Never Have Enough Shoes!

Every female dancer in the company wears pointe shoes in the production, and can have up to ten pairs of shoes at one time, that they alternate during performances, sometimes several times in a show.

Through out the tour each girl will go through up to 40 pairs of pointe shoes and over 50 meters of ribbon.
