A look at rehearsals!

A huge thank you to Amy Azais for these incredible photos from rehearsals!

We are so excited to have our principal dancers back in the studio, getting ready to bring the magic to the stage for this year's production of The Nutcracker!

The entire cast, from the youngest dancers to the seasoned professionals, is working tirelessly to perfect every detail of their performances. The synergy between the dancers is palpable, creating a beautiful tapestry of movement that tells the timeless tale of Clara and her journey through the magical land of sweets. Each rehearsal is a blend of hard work and creativity, as the dancers collaborate to ensure that every scene is as enchanting as the last. The production team is equally dedicated, meticulously crafting the stunning sets and costumes that will transport the audience into the whimsical world of The Nutcracker... we can't wait to share more soon!
