✨ The magic of The Nutcracker is for everyone. ✨

As part of our Nutcracker season, we are proud to open the theater to a full house of community members who may not otherwise have the opportunity to experience the beauty, excitement, and joy of a live ballet performance.

With the generous support of the TEB Foundation, this special performance allows families to experience the magic of The Nutcracker together—and our dancers absolutely love it! In fact, this is one of our cast members’ favorite performances because they can feel the energy and excitement from the audience throughout the theater ❤️

We are incredibly grateful for the opportunity to share the magic of live performance with our community.

Learning from the best!

Our Level 6 dancers had the incredible opportunity to take ballet class with Yvonne Racz, Adjunct Associate Professor at SMU’s Meadows School of the Arts, Visiting Professor at Hungarian Dance University, and Artistic Director Emeritus of Ballet Lubbock. A distinguished former professional dancer and passionate dance educator, Ms. Racz shared her expertise and love of dance with our dancers.

From technique to artistry, our dancers were challenged, inspired, and reminded that there is always more to discover at the barre! What a special opportunity to learn from such an inspiring teacher.

Be sure to follow us for information on upcoming guest faculty, master classes, and other exciting opportunities for our dancers!
