Join us this holiday season as the
lights fade, the music swells, snowflakes fall, flowers waltz, and a young
girl dreams about a magical sweet-filled world in the charming and magical The
Nutcracker. Tustin Dance Center is pleased to delight both young and old again
this holiday season with its 15th annual production of this
timeless ballet. Dozens of ballerinas and dance students of all ages are sure
to entertain you at historic Plummer Auditorium in Fullerton.
Set to Tchaikovsky's timeless score, The
Nutcracker tells the story of a girl named Clara whose adventure begins when
she is given a toy Nutcracker as a Christmas gift from her mysterious Uncle
Drosselmeyer during the Stahlbahm’s annual family Christmas Eve party.
Uncle Drosselmeyer entertains the guests with live dancing dolls and his
eccentric ways. Later that night, after the guests depart, Clara falls asleep
and dreams of a grand adventure that begins with her Nutcracker coming to
life and engaging in an epic battle between mice and toys, continues with her
Nutcracker becoming a handsome prince, and comes to a climax with a magical
journey to the Kingdom of Sweets to meet the Sugar Plum Fairy.
In the Kingdom of Sweets, the Sugar
Plum Fairy honor’s Clara with a celebration of dances. From near and far,
marvelous characters come to entertain her with Spanish, Arabian, Russian,
Chinese, Mirlitons and Waltz of the Flowers dances. When Clara thinks she has
seen everything beautiful in the land, the Sugar Plum Fairy dances with her
Cavalier. Soon the Land of Sweets begins to get hazy and Clara opens
her eyes to find herself in her parents’ house, wondering if it was all a
dream…
