IBT The Nutcracker

IBT_Hutcracker Oh my! Even if from beginning I decided to keep this site like knitting/crocheting/craft place only, I can’t resist to share about The Nutcracker ballet presented by International Ballet Theatre we visited today. What’s an Awesome ballet and event for whole family!!! “With childlike awe and anticipation, The Nutcracker ballet rings in the holiday season like no other event. From within Clara’s dream, we are reminded to live life with imagination and wonder, as if we are children once again. Passed through generations for more than a century, The Nutcracker ballet preserves the classical artistry first created by Tchaikovsky and Petipa in St. Petersburg in 1892. IBT performs The Nutcracker ballet in its traditional Russian style with extraordinarily beautiful costumes and tremendous pageantry, including exotic Arabian dancers, a fierce battle scene with life like cavalry, soldiers and giant mice, elegant corps de ballet snowflakes, and of course with the beautiful ballerina, Clara, and her handsome prince (the world renowned dancers, Maria Makarenko and Dmitry Zavalishin from St. Petersburg).” We are in full LOVE with!!!

Happy and Merry Christmas to everyone!
