The Toledo Ballet’s Nutcracker was
the first production I ever danced in. I remember giggling with excitement and
smiling at my sister as we both hid behind Mother Ginger’s big skirt. It may
have been my first Nutcracker but it definitely wouldn’t be my last! This year
will be my 6th time performing in Toledo Ballet’s Nutcracker. For me
each year keeps getting better and better. I have countless amazing memories at
the theater whether we were on stage or hanging out backstage. The best part is I’m still dancing with
a lot of the same girls! They’re not kidding when they say Toledo Ballet is
like a family, a lot of us have grown up together. What I think makes the
Nutcracker so special though, is that no two shows are the same; each brings
new laughs, challenges, and experiences!
The Nutcracker is right around the
corner and with each rehearsal we know we’re getting closer and closer to the
performance date. Yesterday we began working on the Finale which is always
really fun because it brings the whole cast together. Before we know it we’ll
be dancing on stage for a huge crowd which makes all our hard work worth it!
