Ballet Austin The Nutcracker Tickets

The production that the Ballet Austin has been most known for is "The Nutcracker". Every December for the past 45 years, the company has arranged an annual recital of the nation’s favorite Christmas ballet. This makes their version of "The Nutcracker" the longest running production in the entire state. Since holiday season is looming large once more, Ballet Austin The Nutcracker tickets are going on sale. The 22 principle dancers of the company are training hard to live up to the standards of the previous years.

The Ballet Austin has never been just for professionals. It provides basic classes to the young ones, between the ages of three to four as well. In this section, they give lessons on the basic creative movements which give the budding dancers the required framework and etiquette of ballet. The classes increase in difficulty level and escalate to professional, covering nearly all ages that have an interest in classical ballet. In additional to their formal classes, the ballet also has a fully equipped facility for health and fitness programs, and dance classes for the general public. Here they can learn a variety of different dance forms, including jazz, hip hop, hula, modern, tap, or even yoga.

Because they believe in teaching the art and discipline of dance to the masses, the management has overlooked the development of a larger center where they could facilitate even more students and masters. This new campus is built over 34,000 square feet and is located right in the centre of Austin’s famous art district. They intend to operate as a community school, one where anyone, regardless of their credentials can apply. The campus consists of everything a top dance academy would require. It has seven studios where dancers could rehearse for their upcoming ventures, administrative offices to carry out the day to day business, a studio theatre, and a Pilates studio. The theatre consists of nearly 300 seats and is complete with professional sound and lighting systems. This is where the primary Ballet Austin The Nutcracker performances will take place when the production is not on tour.

Their tours have recently been initiated because of a high demand. They have performed at all important theatres of the United States, including New York’s "Joyce Theatre" and Washington’s "The Kennedy Centre". They are also increasingly becoming particularly prominent in Western Europe, which has led to a few world tours as well.

Before you buy Ballet Austin The Nutcracker tickets, it would be important to know a little bit about the production itself. Originally a French-Russian ballet, the production was first performed in 1892, which makes it about 120 years old. The mesmerizing score, along with the intricate choreography has made it amongst the most known ballets in the entire world. Over the previous half of the decade, it has started to become more closely associated with Christmas and the holiday season. "The Nutcracker Suite" is perhaps the most iconic dance of any form or genre, and has been preserves point to point over the century. Different company and choreographers have often presented their own interpretations of the dance but have never failed to include the true essence of the work.

The Ballet Austin The Nutcracker show will be more close to the original because the company believes as much in keeping up with the tradition as it believes in innovation and the importance of progression. They also want to keep in with the fantasy element of the show, making sure that the acts are as appealing to the younger audience as it is to the older ones who perhaps have a greater appreciation for this long lived tradition. In addition to the company’s casted dancers, the guests will also be treated to special appearances by some of Austin’s most known faces in the category. To make the event even more special, this year will mark the production’s golden anniversary. For this reason, most of the company’s old choreographers and retired dancers have also been rumored to attend to celebrate this milestone.
