About Bunheads, Act 2: The Dance of Courage
In this inspiring follow-up to Bunheads, Misty and her friends learn the ballet Don Quixote—a dramatic tale of a knight’s search for his true love. When Misty’s best friend Cat lands a lead role but suffers an injury, she shows grace and strength in the face of disappointment, reminding everyone what courage and friendship really look like.
