Dance Alive National Ballet

"Dance Alive National Ballet's production of The Nutcracker gave us our first sell-out of the season!
They were incredibly gracious to work with and their price point made them accessible for our community.
Professionally trained and beautifully presented, their performance was the highlight of the holiday season!"

— Heather L. Stanley, Managing Director, Rylander Theatre
