Nutcracker: Every year the Berkeley City Ballet stages an elaborate production of the Nutcracker. The BCB Nutcracker features a cast of over 50 dancers with elegant costumes and sets. Dancers from companies such as the San Francisco Ballet and Pacific Northwest Ballet perform lead roles, allowing the students to work side-by-side with seasoned performers.
The experience of dancing in a professional, large-scale production is invaluable in the training of young dancers. BCB maintains an excellent reputation of presenting one of the few traditional and full-length productions of the Nutcracker in the East Bay.
