HUNTSVILLE, AL — This year marks the 55th presentation of Huntsville Ballet’s performance ofÂ
The Nutcracker, and once again, Tchaikovsky’s timeless score will be performed by the Huntsville Symphony Orchestra. The production, featuring Huntsville Ballet Company’s entire roster of professional dancers, complemented by a cast of over 80 students from Huntsville Ballet School, will bring to life the treasured story of Clara and her Nutcracker prince. Together they defeat the Mouse King and his army and travel through dancing snowflakes to the Land of Sweets where they are entertained by the Sugar Plum Fairy and her court of magical characters.
“We are extraordinarily grateful to be able to performÂ
The Nutcracker with the Huntsville Symphony Orchestra. There’s something special about performing with a live orchestra. The audience can feel the energy,” said Artistic Director, Phillip Otto. Huntsville Ballet’s opening performance of the season featured live musical accompaniment as will their presentation of Swan Lake, Acts II & IV in April.
