It is with great sadness that due to weather and safety restrictions the Saturday and Sunday performances of The Nutcracker need to be canceled. We want to thank the dancers, their families, the musicians, and all of the volunteers for their hard work and countless hours of preparation. We are saddened that we won’t get to share this wonderful performance with the community.
The excitement is in the air as the Sugar Plum Fairy will be here for her annual tea on Sunday, November 24 at 12:00 pm and sadly departs at 1:30 pm. Her next stop will be The Nutcracker on Thanksgiving weekend.
