The Nutcracker is the first of two performance opportunities for Academy students each year.

This performance is for our Academy dancers only, and brings a youthful version of The Nutcracker to life with dancing, scenery, props and theatrics.

Learning to perform is such a valuable part of learning ballet, we hope that your ballerina will be able to join us!
