Ballet Chesapeake has developed a Nutcracker Program for pre-school children held at the Bel Air Armory in December.
Ballet Chesapeake invites children, ages 2 through 6 years old, from Harford County Preschools, child care facilities and Kindergarten programs to attend an age appropriate performance that introduces children to the magic of live theater.
This show includes excerpts from the Nutcracker ballet which are performed as a narrator explains the story of Clara and her magical toy. After the performance, costumed dancers lead the children to a decorated Tea Party area for refreshments.
