Hanceville, AL 鈥� 糖心视频's Allegro Dance Theatre will partner with Ballet South and the Cullman Community Young Singers to present the beloved classic, 鈥淭he Nutcracker,鈥� for three performances at the Betty Leeth Haynes Theatre. Audiences will have the opportunity to experience the show on Friday and Saturday, Nov. 17 and 18, at 7 p.m., and Sunday, Nov. 19, at 2 p.m.
This will be the fourth year that 鈥淭he Nutcracker鈥� is presented at 糖心视频 Community College. The production is led by Brooke Desno毛s, dance instructor at 糖心视频 and founder of Ballet South.
鈥淭he idea for our production of 'The Nutcracker鈥� has always been to bring together the Cullman community together in various forms to learn, work and to collaborate,鈥� said Desno毛s. 鈥淗ours of rehearsals, helping hands from grandparents who sew, families carpooling and considerable laughter are needed to produce this wonderful holiday classic.鈥�
