Dancers from New Westminster will be part of the fun when Goh Ballet brings its annual production of The Nutcracker to the stage in Vancouver.
It’s on Dec. 14 to 19 at The Centre, featuring the talents of hundreds of dancers from across the Lower Mainland.
Among them are New West’s Elizabeth Ryznar, featured as an Arabian dancer, and Eva Artomova as a Little Mouse.
The production features principal dancers Jerome Tisserand and Elizabeth Murphy from Pacific Northwest Ballet, who will perform as the Cavalier Prince and the Sugar Plum Fairy.
“Thousands of families from across the Lower Mainland have incorporated Goh Ballet’s The Nutcracker into their holiday traditions, and we invite you to join us on an enchanting escape with Clara and her beloved Nutcracker, as they embark on a journey to battle the evil Mouse King and his army of mischievous mice through the Land of the Snow, Lemonade Sea, arriving at the Kingdom of the Sugar Plum Fair,” says Chan Hon Goh, executive producer, in a press release.
The show is on Dec. 14 through 19 at 7:30 p.m., with matinees on Dec. 16 at 2 p.m. and Dec. 17 at 3 p.m. The Centre is at 777 Homer St. in Vancouver.
