Dear Family & Friends

We were informed 12 days before opening night that we would not be allowed to have an audience at our 2020 Nutcracker. We are now going to live stream our 2020 Nutcracker so everyone around the world can watch our Nutcracker on LIVE STREAM in the comfort of your home.
Our dancers have been in rehearsal non stop since August to bring this holiday classic to the stage. With so many events being canceled this year we need to keep the holiday spirit alive and continue with the magic of the Ahwatukee Foothills Nutcracker Ballet!
It would mean so much to me and our dancers if you, your family and friends would please purchase the live stream to support our Nutcracker ❄️ We want to continue to bring this holiday classic to the stage for years to come and for generations to enjoy. Thank you! ❤️

A very special Friend-and-Relation tells Christopher Robin a story of a Christmas Eve very long ago (about last year) when Eeyore, the old gray donkey who lives by himself in the thistle corner of Hundred-Acre Wood, was absolutely miserable. It seems that he lost his tail and Winnie-the-Pooh and Piglet got all of their friends and a search was organized. There is a great deal of fun and excitement, plus delightful songs, in the adventure that follows. Its theme, which concerns caring, sharing and the importance of cultivating friends, makes this a very special and enchanting musical suitable for any age. Learn more at https://buff.ly/32LmokU

Meet our Angel 👼🏼 Queen from the @afnutcracker Miss Natalie Henning....
I am a 7th grader that goes to Altadena middle school and I am 13. What I absolutely love about the Ahwatukee Foothills nutcracker is that I get to be spend time with my closes friends and family, and the fact that I get to dance in such a beautiful production just brings joy to my heart. I am so so so excited to dance as the angel queen, especially because it’s my first year dancing a queen role. I can’t even began to explain the feeling I had when I first saw my sign, It immediately brought tears to my eyes. I have been doing nutcracker for the past 3 years now. My favorite roles that I have danced in the nutcracker so far has been a lead toy soldier and this year the angel queen. 3 things nobody knows about me is I have 7 pets, my middle name is Maria, and my favorite food is macaroons. All in all nutcracker gives me a very special feeling of hope and joy that I get to enjoy every year with my favorite people! When I grow up I would love to become a surgeon.

Meet our Russian Queen from the @afnutcracker Miss Jayden Droz....
I am a freshman at Desert Vista and I am 14 years old. What I enjoy most about being in The Ahwatukee Foothills Nutcracker Ballet is being able to spend time with my dance family and being a role model for all the little ones in the show. I am so excited to be dancing as the role of the Russian Queen, it is such a fun and energetic role that I have dreamt of becoming. This year will be my 12th Nutcracker! In the past my favorite roles have been, Clara, and the Queen of Sweets. Three things that people might not know about me are, I used to play the piano and sing, I’m Puerto Rican, and I am the only red head in my entire family including my extended family. What makes the nutcracker so special to me is the magic that comes with it, and the traditions that we follow each year. Later on in life, I would love to become an orthodontist.

Get to know our Queen of Sweets 🍭from the @afnutcracker ...Miss Kendall Birnbaum 🍬
My name is Kendall and I am the Queen of Sweets this year in the Ahwatukee Foothills Nutcracker Ballet. I am 13 years old and in 8th grade at Altadeña Middle School. I love the family we build every year through the Nutcracker and spending time with all of my friends. I am so excited to be the Queen of Sweets this year in the Nutcracker because I love being a role model for the younger girls and boys. This is my first queen role. When I found out I was so thrilled because I got the queen role I wanted and I love being with all of the queens. This will be my 10th Nutcracker with the Ahwatukee Foothills Nutcracker Ballet. My favorite roles I have had in the Nutcracker is Clara last year and the year before being Clara’s best friend. Three things most people do not know about me is I DO NOT like cheese, I have a flexible back, and my favorite place to travel is to Switzerland. The Ahwatukee Foothills Nutcracker Ballet is so special to me because everyone in it can bond and we all get to know each other better and better. When I get older I am not sure exactly what I would like to do but I might want to travel the world and maybe be a commercial dancer.
