☆ Upcoming Productions ☆
What else are we doing? Well...
Nutcracker, a Youth Musical
Script and lyrics by Mary Kay Beall, music arranged by Ruth Artman, orchestrated by Bob Lowden.
Adapted from The Nutcracker Suite by Peter I. Tchaikovsky and The Nutcracker and
the Mouse King by E.T.A. Hoffman" and directed by Diane Sullivan.
December 3, 4, 5 (Sunday Matinee).
The curtain opens on a Christmas Eve party at the home of Fritz and Marie. The gift of a
tiny nutcracker from their Godfather causes a bit of a family disturbance but it is that very
gift that starts us on our magical journey to the land of sweet dreams. At the stroke of midnight,
the Nutcracker is transformed. He leads his army in a victorious encounter with the evil Mouse
King after which he escorts Marie on an enchanted journey to Candy Meadow, Cookie County and
the Kingdom of Sweets. They meet all sorts of interesting people on their travels: a Sugar
Plum Fairy, the Russian Bakers, the Candy Flutes, Chinese Tea Dancers, beautiful Arabian
Dancers and wonderful Waltzing Flowers. Let the dialogue and eight delightful songs whisk
you away on this marvelous journey with Marie and the Nutcracker. (Thank you to StagePass.com
