CULLOWHEE, N.C. – The Ballet Conservatory of Asheville will again visit the campus of Western Carolina University to perform two ticketed performances of the holiday favorite ballet, “The Nutcracker”. Visit Bardo Arts Center and see young Clara befriend a nutcracker that comes to life on Christmas Eve and wages a battle against the evil Mouse King. The performances will be held on Friday, Dec. 6 at 7:30 p.m. and Saturday, Dec. 7 at 3 p.m.
Ballet Conservatory of Asheville (BCA) trains dancers to achieve their full potential by combining weekly technique classes, frequent master classes, and multiple performance opportunities.
