The Nutcracker

The Schuylkill Valley Regional Dance Company will be performing a brand "new to the area" "Nutcracker" this year to celebrate its 40th Anniversary.  Two former principal dancers from the Kirov Ballet, Andrei Ustinov and Elena Martinson, will be setting choreography on the Company based on the original work by Marius Petipa (originally performed at the Kirov in 1892).  Artistic Director Michelle Jones Wurtz will be assisting the ballet masters and will be joining the cast for a special cameo appearance.  The Company performs a "Nutcracker" annually but this year there will be many changes to what people have become accustomed to in the area.  This is a holiday tradition not to be missed!
