Nutcracker Sweets
December 11 @ 12:00 am – December 12 @ 11:59 pm
Charlottesville Ballet Academy is thrilled to present a student-led production called Nutcracker Sweets this season!
This condensed version of the beloved holiday ballet will feature local children alongside artists from Charlottesville Ballet’s professional company. We hope this interim production will make the holiday season magical for our young dancers and patrons until we can return to our full production in 2022!
*Please note: that this is an excerpted production of Charlottesville Ballet’s traditional full-length Nutcracker performed by local students. Due to Covid-19 restrictions and the limited space, it will be a condensed version without backdrops and minimal props. Masks are required for all performers and patrons; seating will be physically distanced in the auditorium at The Center at Belvedere.
*Please note: Charlottesville Ballet’s professional production of The Nutcracker traditionally features a cast of over 120 performers in multiple cities. The production requires logistics that would not be possible with our safety guidelines that protect the health of our dancers and patrons. The professional company artists will return to the stage in Spring 2022 and our full-length Nutcracker performances and events will return next year. We hope this interim production will make the holiday season magical for our young dancers and patrons!
Due to high demand, tickets are no longer available to the public. If you have a student in the production but do not have tickets, please email [email protected] and we will assist you and make sure you can see your child perform!
