SARATOGA SPRINGS — Celebrate the holidays with the whole family and join Saratoga City Ballet for its spectacular 27th Anniversary production of The Nutcracker, with Artistic Director Beth Fecteau at the majestic Hart Theater at The Egg, Empire State Plaza, Albany on Saturday, Dec. 18 at 1 p.m. and 4 p.m.
This abridged version of Act II chronicles Clara's enchanting journey into the Land of the Sweets and her adventures with all of its lively characters, including the Sugar Plum Fairy! Danced to Tchaikovsky's classic score, this production truly captures the magic of this timeless tale with a few modern twists thrown in.
Directed and choreographed by Beth Fecteau, this is Saratoga City Ballet’s 27th Anniversary production of the Nutcracker – a perfect holiday treat for audiences of all ages. Beth Fecteau’s choreography and production of Nutcracker premiered in 1996 at the Historic Cohoes Music Hall presented by Youth Ballet Company and Dance Eclectic. After two years and a growing school and cast, this production moved to The Egg and was performed annually until 2004. Beth retired the production when she was named Director of the Museum of Dance in Saratoga Springs merging Youth Ballet Company into what was the School of the Arts at the Museum of Dance. Beth is thrilled to be sharing her work with new dancers and a new organization in the 27th Year of Saratoga City Ballet’s production.
