Session Description

Every year we invite area dance students to perform with our professional ballet company. The Nutcracker performance is very different from a school recital. A recital is geared to showcase the child's improvement throughout the year. The casting for this professional production is done to maximize the integrity of our company and to make Atlantic City Ballet’s Nutcracker the best it can be. If your child is chosen to perform, he or she is a junior member of the company and must be committed and available from Sept to Dec. and for the mandatory Nutcracker camp in Au- gust. Each cast member is required to attend all rehearsals. Roll is taken at each rehearsal. If your child is absent from rehearsal, unless sick with a doctors note, dismissal from the produc- tion will follow. Even if your child feels confident and has learned their part, it is vital for them to keep improving and practicing in preparation for the performance. The Atlantic City Ballet could not produce this production without its volunteers, parents and staff. Your courtesy, patience, understanding, and humor will be greatly appreciated. Although we have done our best to make this production exciting and worthwhile, we need your help and assistance to succeed.
