THE ACADEMY AT TERPSICORPS PRESENTS

The Nutcracker

The Academy at Terpsicorps presents a new production of the classic holiday ballet “The Nutcracker” November 26 and 27.  This ballet tells the story of a young person, Clara, receiving a very special present for Christmas, and how the gift of the Nutcracker inspires a series of magical adventures, from a battle between the Mouse King and his army and the Nutcracker Prince and his soldiers, to a trip through a snowstorm where the snowflakes have come to life to dance with their Snow Queen, and finally to a magic Land of Sweets, where Clara is celebrated for her brave role in helping to conquer the Mouse King.  This performance should be a wonderful evening for the entire family

THE ACADEMY AT TERPSICORPS PRESENTS

The Nutcracker

The Academy at Terpsicorps presents a new production of the classic holiday ballet “The Nutcracker” November 26 and 27.  This ballet tells the story of a young person, Clara, receiving a very special present for Christmas, and how the gift of the Nutcracker inspires a series of magical adventures, from a battle between the Mouse King and his army and the Nutcracker Prince and his soldiers, to a trip through a snowstorm where the snowflakes have come to life to dance with their Snow Queen, and finally to a magic Land of Sweets, where Clara is celebrated for her brave role in helping to conquer the Mouse King.  This performance should be a wonderful evening for the entire family

ASHEVILLE CONTEMPORARY DANCE THEATRE PRESENTS “THE NUTCRACKER AND THE MOUSE KING”
Dec 3 @ 10:00 am
Diana Wortham Theatre

A GREAT WAY TO KICK OFF THE HOLIDAY SEASON!

Expect the brilliantly unexpected from Asheville Contemporary Dance Theatre’s tenth annual performance of The Nutcracker and the Mouse King. ACDT shocked and surprised audiences over the years with their original version of The Nutcracker. Though The Nutcracker might be the world’s most famous ballet, if it is being performed by ACDT you can guarantee it is something you haven’t seen before. Their version couldn’t be farther from Tchaikovsky’s famous ballet. It is based on the original and much darker story written in 1816 by German author E.T.A. Hoffmann.

“I always want to go back to the original story” artistic co- director Collard says. “The characters and the story are always so much more interesting.” Take for example the King and Queen of Sausages who have surprised and delighted audiences with delightful humor and the party guests wrapped in gorgeous costumes dancing a wild and wonderful polka. And then there is the famous Mouse King and his lovely wife and their numerous children creating havoc all over the ballet with magical aerialists flying over head creating a surrealism to visually delight all ages.

This year’s performance features the ACDT adult company, White Dog ProjectX International, and the students of New Studio of Dance. With typical ACDT flair, The Nutcracker and the Mouse King will again prove to be a wonderful Seasonal story full of adventure, courage and loyalty where love comes alive in a spectacular modern dance experience.

Asheville Contemporary Dance Theatre (ACDT) is a non-profit professional dance company created in 1979. As western North Carolina’s first professional modern dance company, they believe that everything everywhere is dance and everyone is a dancer. ACDT is devoted to local and international work, forging collaborations and partnerships between Asheville artists and dance artists from around the world.

The Nutcracker: Once Upon a Time in Greenville

A European inspired production that brings all of Clara’s adventures and excitement home to Greenville. Continuing our reinvented holiday classic, the production highlights Victorian societal expectations and prosperity while Clara and her beloved Nutcracker dance their way through the cherished landmarks and stunning scenery of Greenville and into the hearts of the audience.

The libretto is adapted from E.T. A. Hoffmann’s classic story, The Nutcracker and the Mouse King. Choreographed by Hernan Justo, the refreshed ballet is based on the original Marius Petipa and Lev Ivanov ballet.
