Get into the holiday spirit with Morgan Hill-based South Valley Dance Arts’ upcoming production of “The Nutcracker.”
SVDA—a community oriented, non-competitive modern/ballet school and performing arts company—has lined up six live showings of the holiday ballet classic the weekends of Dec. 1-2 and Dec. 8-9 at the Ann Sobrato Performing Arts Center, 401 Burnett Ave.
Producers and performers gave spectators a free preview of the show at a special event at BookSmart Nov. 18.
“The Nutcracker” will transport the audience to a magical place filled with adorable children, marching toy soldiers, a growing Christmas tree, a giant Mother Ginger, mischievous rats, waltzing snowflakes, the Land of Sweets and breathtaking costumes, sets and dancing, according to a press release from SVDA.
SVDA’s one-of-a-kind production of “The Nutcracker” has been delighting South Valley audiences with its signature blend of classical technique, enthusiastic young students from throughout the community, humor and surprises for more than a decade, the press release continues. The upcoming production features a cast of more than 130 dancers.
