This year's production to include visual embellishments, special guests and a holiday boutique
Nevada Ballet Theatre (NBT) is pleased to announce its 2010 holiday production of The Nutcracker. With choreography by Peter Anastos, this beloved family tradition will be presented on Dec.17 - Dec. 26 at the Paris Théâtre.
Debuting last year as a new production to Las Vegas, Anastos' fanciful version will include charming new highlights and exciting visual effects. NBT's second year performing in the grandeur of the Paris Théâtre will consist of eight performances; dates include: Dec. 17 at 8 pm, Dec. 18 at 7 pm, Dec. 19 at 1pm and 5pm, Dec. 22 at 7pm, Dec. 23 at 7pm, Dec. 24 at 1pm and Dec. 26 at 1pm.
"We are grateful to Harrah's for hosting The Nutcracker once again in their jewel of a theatre at Paris Las Vegas," said Executive Director and CEO Beth Barbre. "This is a family friendly show that will appeal to residents and tourists alike. It is a great way to experience traditional holiday culture on the Strip. We would also like to thank the Harrah's Foundation for their continued support of NBT."
NBT's production of The Nutcracker has been a holiday main stay in Las Vegas for over 25 years.
Based on the famous novel by E.T.A. Hoffmann entitled The Nutcracker and the Mouse King, this family-friendly story was transformed into a classical ballet over 100 years ago in St. Petersburg, Russia by famed choreographers Marius Petipa and Lev Ivanov. After its United States premiere by the San Francisco Ballet, the New York City Ballet cemented the production's popularity in 1954 when it performed George Balanchine's version. In addition, Tchaikovsky's score of The Nutcracker is now considered the composer's most celebrated composition and the ballet itself regarded as a true American pastime.
