Last night was my 1st time seeing it. It was all exquisite. The orchestra was perfectly mixed. All the dancing and costumes were great. The famous string of dance numbers in the 2nd act was inspiring. All done flawlessly considering the complexity involved.

Ballet Tucson’s classic Victorian Nutcracker is a stunning feast for the eyes and soul. The sets and costumes are spectacular and the company of professional dancers are amazing artists. Local children appear in cameo parts and the feel of the production perfectly captures the spirit of the festive season! The pace of the production is perfect with each scene topping the last. The choreography is always interesting and my favorite scene is the dance of the snowflakes . I have attended Ballet Tucson’s production annually for many years and have taken friends and family as a holiday tradition each season. The beauty of the the production always brigs tears to my eyes. The holidays would not be the same without going to see this show. I have seen many different renditions of The Nutcracker and think Ballet Tucson’s is the best Nutcracker around!
