X. Exactly! Our astute followers noticed we haven’t finished our Nutcracker ABCs! 👍🏽 EXTRAS such as flowers, cookie grams and candy grams sent to dancers backstage by their adoring fans, add to the excitement and performance experience. Adorable Nutcracker-themed cookies by @brujeria.cookiery were extremely popular, and sold out immediately! 💐🎄🩰 #juneaudancetheatre #jdtsthenutcracker #thenutcrackerballet #nutcracker #liveperformance #balletschool

U. Audiences unanimously favored The Nutcracker, this year. They ultimately clapped and cheered after the unison steps of the finale. And who doesn’t love when Clara looks under the tree for her nutcracker; or Konfeta’s festive unitard? #juneaudancetheatre #jdtsthenutcracker #thenutcrackerballet #nutcracker #ballet #balletdancers #balletschool #liveperformance

T is for Tea, of course. The poor mouse who gets trapped by the tail; and those troublemaking boys who torture the girls with their trumpets. Our performances are over for 2021; but these and other images of The Nutcracker will carry us through the holidays! Until next time! #juneaudancetheatre #jdtsthenutcracker

Congratulations to JDT senior, Lauryn! Lauryn danced Snow Queen and corps, and Coffee, in this year’s Nutcracker. Always surrounded by friends, you’ll see a lot of familiar faces in these fun photos of Lauryn. Her Nutcracker resume includes all children’s roles, plus party boy AND girl, Lead Soldier, Lead Hot Chocolate, Tea Lead and corps, Marzipan Lead and corps, and Flowers! Great job, Lauryn! @lauryncampos #ballet #thenutcrackerballet #juneaudancetheatre #nutcracker #seniorsunday #ss22

Celebrating JDT senior, Elin! Congratulations, Elin, on beautiful performances as our 2021 Snow Queen and corps, Lead Hot Chocolate, Tea Lead and Marzipan! We remember Elin as an adorable baby mouse, and in all of the children’s roles, the dancing doll, flowers, and of course, lighting up the stage as Clara, in 2015 (see our #clarachronicles series on IGTV). We are proud of all you have accomplished, on the stage, and off! @akelin907 #juneaudancetheatre #ballet #thenutcrackerballet #nutcracker #seniorsunday #ss22

Time for a stroll down Nutcracker memory lane, with senior, Adara! Adara danced the maid, Lead Hot Chocolate, Lead Marzipan and corps, and snow corps, this past weekend. Other notable roles have been Mouse King, Flowers, Bear, and all of the children’s roles. She quite possibly holds the record for most consecutive years as a party boy and Polichinelle. Give her a shout out and help her celebrate senior year!! @adarab27 #juneaudancetheatre #thenutcrackerballet #nutcracker #seniorsunday #ss22

Congratulations to our seniors, on your return to the stage, and (possibly) your final Nutcracker with JDT. And a second chance performance for one of our class of ‘21 seniors who didn’t get to dance a Nutcracker last year, due to COVID. We’re so proud of your strength, grace, beauty, and talent! Way to go!! #juneaudancetheatre #jdtsthenutcracker #seniorsunday #ss22 #balletstudents #nutcracker #ballet
