Nutcracker Time

Oy!  It’s that time of year again.  Nutcracker is in full swing at the theatre.  I have to say- before I came to work here, I wasn’t much of a Nutcracker fan….but the Butler Ballet does a pretty maxed out job.  The set and a lot of the props and such are from the Ruth Page Chicago Tribune set and it’s a big one.  We use up all 56 of our line-sets and then some.  There’s a live orchestra, the Butler Symphony, (reeeeaaaalllyyy good BTW), a children’s choir, large format projection and some really great ballet.  In short- the Real Deal.  I’ll put up some stills of the show shortly.  Right now we have to get through dress rehearsal…..
