my friend jeanette and i made plans to see her daughter's nutcracker show at peridance, where she takes classes most days after school. she's in her senior year of high school, and this is probably her last nutcracker before going to college, unless she attends a school in the city and is home for rehearsals at holiday time.
we met beforehand at a local restaurant we thought would be nice to try. the food and coffee were very good. i had grilled octopus and then we shared a creme brulée.
her daughter is in the school's youth ensemble.
it was a fun show. the dancers were all exceptional and the choreography was very clear and took into consideration the small stage and number of performers. the production also used video well, highlighting the story with images of the city and using graphics for scene changes.

the theatre is part of their school; they simply remove the divider between classrooms. it has such a different feel when the risers are put up and the full space is used.
