We’re so excited to announce that we will have three performances instead of two this year! We will have our regular Nutcracker in December, and end-of-the-year June Production in the spring/summer (Cinderella: The Little Glass Slipper). And on top of all that, we will also have a brand new show in October: the Nightmare Before Nutcracker!
Three Performances, Triple the Fun!
The following performance is still upcoming this year:
- Cinderella: The Little Glass Slipper (June 6th-8th, 2024)
We already had the following shows this year:
- Nightmare Before Nutcracker (October 27th & 28th, 2023)
- Nutcracker: Experience the Magic (December 16th & 17th, 2024)
While we do the Nutcracker and the June Production every year here at the International Academy of Dance,2023 was our first year of the Nightmare Before Nutcracker! If you missed any of these shows, don’t sweat! We will still be doing all three performances again next year, so don’t miss out on any of them!
