Sky1 announces 'Pineapple' documentary

Sky1 has commissioned a new documentary series titled Pineapple Studios.

The fly-on-the-wall show, slated to begin in February 2010, will follow the lives of teachers, pupils and staff as they attend auditions and rehearsals in the famous studios.

Pineapple Studios will apparently blur the lines between documentary, comedy and drama as viewers are invited to go behind the scenes of Europe's largest dance space.

The show will also introduce a number of characters, from millionaire founder Debbie Moore to artistic director Louie Spence and celebrated choreographer Mark Battershall.
