Central Park Dance Returns to Capitol Theater with THE NUTCRACKER Image

Central Park Dance, Westchester's largest dance center committed to cultivating the 21st century dancer, will return to The Capitol Theater with its production of Tchaikovsky's The Nutcracker after it's sold out premiere last winter. Featuring students of the school, in addition to young dancers from surrounding Westchester and Connecticut communities, audiences will enjoy this timeless tale, December 17 at 4:00 p.m.

In celebrating a legacy that has spanned across 35 years, Central Park Dance has made its mark on the Westchester dance community as a producer of original ballets that invite their expansive disciplines and levels to participate. Dancers of all ages will make up their ensemble of over 100 dancers, spanning from the littlest mouse to the dazzling Sugar Plum Fairy. International guest artists will also join the cast to bring this iconic story to life on a stage that has been coinedWestchester's Premiere Rock Palace.

"In 35 years, I have watched several generations of students dance through our doors," explains Maria Bai, Artistic Director and Co-Founder of Central Park Dance Studio. "We have made it our mission to offer students a well-rounded dance education that includes not only time in the studio, but opportunities to interact with and perform for our community. We were overwhelmed by the support we received last year at our Nutcracker debut, and we are so lucky to be able to expand the opportunity to more students and more families."

A faculty wide collaboration, this year's production will feature concepts and choreography by Patricia Arenson and Jessica Miller.
