The Nutcracker is cracking me up!!

Well- not really. I just thought it would be fun to start out the blog with a little play on words. But, we are working very hard on our upcoming production, and it has given me a new respect for everyone involved. Sheesh - the details are complicated!

If you haven't purchased your tickets yet, get to Paradise Ridge CDs (117 East 3rd, Moscow) on Monday to get yours. (Paradise Ridge doesn't start selling them until Monday the 19th.) We aren't sold out yet, but tickets are selling quickly. Also, the stage will be altered in the Hartung Theatre to bring it out closer into the audience, and we will loose the middle of the front row of seats. (They're doing this for Midsummer Night's Dream, and we've asked them to leave the stage like that for our show.) So that's 10 less seats that we have for audience members. I was a little worried about that, but the impact will be so great on the show, that I now think it is a good idea. The stage and sets will be wonderful!

I've created a FAQ sheet to aid in communication with the parents and students. Please go to http://www.festivaldance.org/ to read about what part your child has in the show, who is in which performances, costumes, hair & make-up, tickets, safety backstage, and how to buy Nutcracker Suite and Celtic Treats t-shirts. I hope it will really be informative.

There are no classes at any Festival Dance studio next week for the whole week of Thanksgiving. (19th-23rd)
