There’s a sigh of relief at the Las Vegas Ballet Company. Performers had a full rehearsal schedule before this month’s show, something it wasn’t able to do for its last performance because of an increase in rental fees for Las Vegas-Clark County Library District facilities.
It’s a gift, to be sure – but one so resplendently wrapped that the contents can’t possibly compete with the elaborate exterior packaging.
It just wouldn’t be Christmas without “The Nutcracker.” Not for the audiences who have made the ballet a holiday staple. And certainly not for the ballet companies that stage it
The Nevada Ballet Theatre is scheduled to perform “The Nutcracker” for the first time in The Smith Center for the Performing Arts, 361 Symphony Park Ave., at 7:30 p.m. Dec. 15.
You can’t have a future without a past.
The Las Vegas Philharmonic and Nevada Ballet Theatre are looking forward to a long, beautiful relationship with The Smith Center, a new audience and each other.
