Today was the first of three ‘Special Needs Performances’ that Ballet West gives to the Utah.

Peter Christie has been taking reservations since September and the house was full today!

Utah Public and Charter Schools and Utah School for the Deaf and Blind were in attendance today.  They saw the complete Nutcracker accompanied by the Ballet West Orchestra under the baton of Maestro Terence Kern.

And just when everyone thought it couldn’t get any better, Santa Claus himself graced the stage and drove Clara’s sleigh home!
