ABOUT THE NIGHT BEFORE THE NUTCRACKER (AMERICAN BALLET THEATRE)
Get a front-row seat and experience the excitement of opening night as young dancers prepare for a performance of The Nutcracker. This festive holiday picture book, created in partnership with American Ballet Theatre, is a perfect gift for young readers and dance fans.
’Twas the night before The Nutcracker and, sleepless in their beds,
these budding ballet dancers are rehearsing in their heads.
Children who dream of dancing in The Nutcracker will love this magical illustrated holiday story, told in the tradition of “The Night Before Christmas.” Four young girls and boys experience the thrills of auditions, rehearsals, costume fittings, and finally the big event: opening night! It’s a behind-the-scenes peek that will delight young dancers.
An afterword with original costume illustrations by Tony Award winner Richard Hudson makes this keepsake picture book both aspirational and informative.
