A Burlington holiday tradition since 1974, Albany Berkshire Ballet’s “The Nutcracker” has been captivating audiences with its magic and wonderment. The enduring production returns to the Flynn Main Stage on November 26-27. This enchanting ballet features over 125 local dance students from 32 Vermont towns performing with professional dancers at the legendary Flynn Theater.
Albany Berkshire Ballet, under the guidance of Artistic Director Madeline Cantarella Culpo, has choreographed the cherished holiday classic, which also features the beloved score of Peter Tchaikovsky. Helena Sullivan, owner and Artistic Director of Stowe Dance Academy, Mad River Dance Academy, and the Rehearsal Mistress for Albany Berkshire Ballet, has been working with our young, local dancers to prepare them for the production. With lavish sets and scenery designed by Carl Sprague, the aspiring Vermont dancers, ages 3-14, coming from Chittenden, Addison, Franklin, Lamoille, Orleans and Washington counties are given the opportunity to perform with professional dancers from across the globe on the historic Flynn stage. The young dancers will be performing as reindeer, clowns, angels, party children, mice, battling soldiers and maids.
The Nutcracker has been introducing audiences of all ages to the magnificent world of ballet for more than a century. Whether it is your first time to experience the Nutcracker, or if you are rediscovering the Land of Sweets, this holiday season do not miss this timeless fairy tale. Come with Clara on her journey through a fantasy world of growing Christmas trees, handsome princes, magical fairies, pesky mice and brave toy soldiers.
