Nutcracker Swings! A new twist on the holiday ballet!

Come
see the Academy Dance Company in the world premiere of the new ballet
“The Nutcracker Swings!” At a swinging party on Christmas Eve in
the 1940's, dancers jump, jive and twist as they welcome home their
local hero, a soldier who has been overseas fighting in World War 2.
Mary receives a Nutcracker as a gift from the mysterious Madam
Duvall, the war hero's mother. When she falls asleep that night, Mary
dreams that her Nutcracker soldier magically comes to life and tells
her all about his worldly travels with dancers from China, France,
Hawaii and more! Come experience this updated and fun version of an
American holiday ballet tradition.


Nutcracker
Swings! will be performed at the Roswell Cultural Arts Center. Show
times are Friday, December 20th
at 7:00 p.m., Saturday December 21st
at 2:00 pm and 7:00 pm. For more information and for tickets, please
call 770-578-8272.
