A Storybook Nutcracker

What do twirling Snowflakes, a Nutcracker Prince, a mischievous Mouse King, and pig-tailed Bon Bons need to complete a ballet? A great story teller! A Storybook Nutcracker, now in it's 24th year in Everett, uses brief narration to bring the story to life. With a cast of over 50 dancers and actors, this production is fully staged, with falling snow, beautiful costumes, and colorful scenery.

Alderwood Dance Spectrum continues this delightful Everett holiday tradition. The ballet has been shortened slightly to make it engaging for all audiences, while retaining its original magic and charm. The characters are friendly and the music is magnificent.

Many of the cast members have danced in the production for years and have taken on new roles as they've progressed and matured. This year features Seareign Westby as Clara, Emerson Webster as her brother Fritz, and Alandra Chow as the Sugar Plum Fairy. David Aldridge reprises his role as Nutcracker Prince, as does Michael Creeden as Herr Drosselmeier, Chuck Dungan as the comical Mouse King, and Pat Bara as our Storyteller.

Audience members are greeted as guests and invited to the Stahlbaum family Christmas party. Following the performance, guests are able to meet the cast, in character, for photos and autographs.
