Visions of Sugar Plums will Dance in your Head
Thanks to the Santa Clarita Ballet Company's "Nutcracker"

The Santa Clarita Ballet Company, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation founded in 1995. The Company makes its home at the Santa Clarita Performing Arts Center at College of the Canyons, providing the community with three performances a year with a June production, a September production and an annual performance of "The Nutcracker" in December.

On December 19 and 20, the Santa Clarita Ballet brings the magic of Christmas to the College of the Canyons Performing Arts Center for its 21st rendition of "The Nutcracker Ballet." Filled with vibrant color, dazzling stage design and touches of humor, "The Nutcracker Ballet" is the perfect way to ignite your holiday spirit and be swept away by some of the most accomplished young dancers in the Santa Clarita Valley. The Nutcracker transports audiences of all ages to a land of wonderment and delight so enchanting you will check your shoulders for a dusting of snow as you leave the theater!

Professional guest dancers, including the world-renowned Russian dance troupe Alexander Klinin and Company, mingle seamlessly with the Company's most accomplished ballerinas to create visions of sugar plums that do much more than dance in your head - they literally swirl before your eyes.

Saturday performances of "The Nutcracker Ballet" are at 2pm and 7:30pm. Sunday performances are at 2pm and 7pm. Tickets are not sold through the COC Performing Arts Center; to order tickets contact the SBC box office directly by phone. 251-0366
