'Tis the Nutcracker Season

Atira and I were at Medomak H.S. this evening enjoying Midcoast Dance Studio's annual presentation of the Nutcracker Ballet. Just a couple days ago we were at Merrill Auditorium being treated to the Maine State Ballet's shortened version of the Nutcracker designed for school children. The event incorporates explanations of the storyline as well as a peek behind the scenes, showing how the props function.












Considering that Tell made it most of the way through before asking when it would be done, I'd say they do a good job of making it interesting for the kids. Atira loved it and wanted to attend the full production so we're making a plan to make that part of her 13th birthday celebration next year.
