Why you need to go to Ballet Arizona’s The Nutcracker?
- In 2006, Ib Andersen created a $1.8 million production of The Nutcracker specifically for Ballet Arizona. Former New York Times chief dance critic, Alastair Macaulay, rated our Nutcracker among the Top 3 in the nation!
- More than 100,000 Austrian Swarovski crystals were used to create the sparkling snow scene.
- 260 costumes, designed by Fabio Toblini, were made for the production in 17 costume shops across America. They used more than 6,500 yards of fabric and 10,000 yards of trim and lace. That’s nearly 10 miles of material!
- It takes 5 backstage crew to push the over 12 foot Mother Ginger and all of her bon bons onto the stage.
- It’s magic from start to finish and a memory you and your family with never forget!
