Nutcracker Update

Despite performing four school shows, a corporate viewing show and three regular shows in Ogden, tonight is opening night!  The company spent last week, minus Thanksgiving day, in Ogden.  There, we performed our annual Ogden Nutcracker shows for packed crowds.  From my view on stage I didn’t see many empty seats, which is great!  This week in Salt Lake has been dedicated to performing school shows and readying less experienced casts.  I will update more next week from DC!  Oh, by the way, we’re performing The Nutcracker at The Kennedy Center next week, woo hoo!

  1. I had the great pleasure of seeing The Ballet West production of The Nutcracker at the Kennedy Center with my son and 4 year old granddaughter – and the delightful surprise of meeting Tyler Gum after the performance. It would be a wonderful surprise for my granddaughter, Sophia, ( who takes dance and dances most of the time :) ) to receive a signed photo of Tyler who danced the role of The Nutcracker Prince that day. Kindly pass this request to Tyler . With warm thanks, Linda Ciotola
