Boston, Dec. 9, 2013, — It’s that time of the year again. For years, you have to go to the theater district in downtown Boston to catch the holiday classic The Nutcracker. Now, Commonwealth Ballet Company (CBC) in Acton Mass. has brought a production of The Nutcracker to Metro West area. You can enjoy this wonderful production by talented young ballet dancers at Regis College in Weston, Mass. the weekend before Christmas.

The four shows over the Thanksgiving Day weekend at Acton-Boxborough Regional High School drew rave reviews. It took me a while to find a parking space in A-B High in the afternoon of Nov. 30, 2013.
You can still share the merriment of the holiday season as the accomplished dancers of Commonwealth Ballet and guest artists frolic, battle and dance through Clara’s holiday dream. Enjoy the family party set before a magical tree on the stage, and share the laughter, magic, and wonder of this holiday classic accompanied by the beloved Tchaikovsky score. |
