Capitol Ballet "Nutcracker" Approaches

Last night in Carmichael, prior to rolling around on the floor and doing cartwheels with some of the Capitol Ballet ballerinas in modern dance class, I saw them practicing for the "Chinese" variation in their upcoming "Nutcracker." These girls are unusually competent (generally the sign of superb natural ability combined with great instruction). Their dancing is just great - lots of toe work, fast transitions, challenging steps. Check out their upcoming "Nutcracker" on December 8th at Sheldon High School!
