The Nutcracker ballet is a wonderful holiday tradition for families. This year, the Goh Ballet is featuring Prima Ballerina Paloma Herrera of the American Ballet Theatre in the role of the Sugar Plum Fairy. I for one am looking forward to attending this year to watch The Nutcracker come to life:

Experience Clara’s dream come to life as she embarks on a magical journey through the Land of Snow to the Kingdom of Sweets where she is greeted by the enchanting Sugar Plum Fairy. An unforgettable adventure awaits as her gallant Nutcracker battles the evil Mouse King and his army of mischievous mice. This heart-warming production is sure to delight audiences of all ages with more than 200 glittering costumes, dramatic sets and valuable lessons – all danced to Tchaikovsky’s memorable score performed live by members of the Vancouver Opera Orchestra.

Performances run from December 18 – 22, 2014 at The Centre in Vancouver with tickets available on Ticketmaster.
