Saturday, November 4th from 10am to 12pm
EPAC colaborates with outside dance studios to bring this holiday classic to the EPAC stage every
year. At this first rehearsal (sign-up day), kids will be placed into families (which will need 'adults' to play parents) for the party scene, rats and toy soldiers for the dream scene. EPAC produces the first act of the Nutcracker, which takes place at a Christmas Party, followed by a magical dream sequence with a dance battle between toy soldiers and rats.
(Please wear comfortable clothing and dance shoes, if you have them.)
The children will need to be placed into groups of "Party Children" (some girls may need to be boys), "Rats", and "Toy Soldiers" (based on size and experience). The second act takes us to the magical land of sweets, produced and performed completely by outside dance studios.
Production dates are December 8th, 9th, 10th Friday & Saturday at 8pm Saturday & Sunday at 3pm
Rehearsals are Saturdays 10am - Noon, Starting Saturday Nov. 4th at EPAC
Show week rehearsals dates: 12/4, 12/5, 12/6, 12/7 (show week rehearsal times TBA)
Happy Holidays!
