Ballet "THE AMERICAN NUTCRACKER"

One of my best holiday memories comes from my very first experience with ballet. I can picture this memory so vividly that it feels like last Christmas. For me the holidays are not just about Christmas, but my birthday too. Yes, I am a “Christmas baby”, being born three days after Christmas. My “PaPa” took me to see the Nutcracker ballet for my birthday when I was a little girl. The Nutcracker ballet is one of the most magical experiences you can give a child. Not a year goes by that I don’t want to relieve that experience by experiencing that first ballet moment all over again. This year don’t miss out, and come see the magic of the “The American Nutcracker” at the Gleason Performing Arts Center in Melbourne, Florida. Let the ballerinas take you away with their amazing performance. This is a wonderful event for the whole family this holiday season.
