This year’s brand new Nutcracker “Suite” will be staged and presented in our lovely NextDoor Theater at 40 Cross Street, Winchester on December 4th & 5th, 2021!
We will plan to have a live audience in our theater, most likely with a limited capacity. If our assessment of the safety situation changes as we get closer to our dates we will pivot to a live-stream showing, and either way a video option will be available to all.
This is a BAC student production and all of the protocol and guidelines that have been put in place for our regular classes will be adhered to for Nutcracker rehearsals, etc., as well.
We look forward to having a great time and a “new” and exciting production to share with all!

"I grew up going to BAC. My time there really shaped who I am as a dancer and person. I’m currently living my childhood dream as a professional ballet dancer with Oregon Ballet Theatre. My training at BAC gave me the solid technical foundation and versatility that is necessary to get a job in dance. The faculty pushed and empowered us to work hard and move out of our comfort zones, exploring movement beyond just classical ballet- they gave me confidence to perform and try new things. I learned how meaningful dance can be and what it feels like to express myself in new ways. I loved going every single day because of the strong bonds and friendships I made with the other students and teachers. It is such a positive and supportive environment, I felt truly myself whenever I was there. I learned the importance of hard work and discipline, and how to enjoy it. BAC creates people who are responsible, caring, supportive, driven, and appreciative of art and community. I owe much of my current success and happiness to the wonderful people I learned from and with at BAC."
"We believe that children who have the opportunity to dance gain confidence, dedication, creativity, and a passion that will last a lifetime!"
