Ballet Brazos Lead Dancer
Olivia Amrein
Olivia is a junior at the Kinder High School of Performing and Visual Arts in Houston, where she is majoring in dance. This past summer, Olivia attended the Senior Summer Intensive at Ballet Austin, as well as intensives provided by Pure Energy. Olivia’s roles in previous Ballet Brazos Nutcracker productions include Angel, Clara, Snowflake, Soldier Doll, Marzipan and Flower in the Waltz of Flowers. This year, she is very grateful and excited for the opportunity to dance as a Snowflake and the Dew Drop Fairy. She thanks her parents and all of her dedicated teachers at Pure Energy, Ballet Brazos, and HSPVA for their outstanding mentoring and for believing in her, as well as all of the cast members for their support. Olivia is dancing in honor and memory of her big sister, Isabel, forever eight.
