As the Grand Rapids Ballet likes to say: “It isn’t the holidays without ‘The Nutcracker’.” And for one local youth, it will be a holiday to remember because she is part of the show.
The Grand Rapids Ballet is in the midst of its annual run of “The Nutcracker”, with final performances Dec. 21-23. As the ballet was preparing for the performances, WKTV Journal caught up with one of the youth dancers in the performances, Kentwood’s Cecilia Nguyen.
Grand Rapids Ballet’s production includes, according to the Ballet, “the world-famous design of Chris Van Allsburg, Broadway-quality sets by Tony Award winner Eugene Lee, festive choreography by Val Caniparoli, and live music from Grand Rapids Symphony, all come together to create pure magic.”
“The Nutcracker” opened Dec. 14 and will continue this weekend, Friday-Sunday, at ther DeVos Performance Hall, downtown Grand Rapids. For more information and tickets visit GRBallet.com .
