The Nutcracker Cast
Meet our artists who transported you to the Land of the Sweets in the ballet world's time-honored holiday tradition that brings together young and old for an evening of magic and enchantment.
Our 12th annual production of The Nutcracker featured preeminent ballet dancers Ashley Laracey and Andrew Veyette from the New York City Ballet as our Sugar Plum Fairy and her Cavalier. Our cast included dancers from professional ballet companies, guest artists from Texas, and pre-professional performers from across the Brazos Valley. And, to add the Mother Ginger magic, Mary “Mike” Hatcher performed as our Celebrity Mother Ginger at our evening shows.
