Nutcracker Panama City Ballet

Hello everyone! We are a non profit organization in Bay County Florida and we will be bringing the holiday classical ballet The Nutcracker to our community with our very own local talent! We have NEVER had a full length Nutcracker production performed in our area with only our local dancers so we are bringing the dance community together like never before! We have nine studios on board to date, but we are starting from scratch and building from the ground up. We need everyone's help to acquire costumes and props and venue rental. We need any help that you can contribute because this community project is going to take a village!!!

We have set our goal pretty high I know, but we will not be using recital costumes. We will be purchasing quality costumes costumes made by the incredible costume designer Cindi Tucker that will last for years! The acquisition of these costume will be about 2/3 of the costumes required for the entire production!

This community project will also help local dancers that have gone away and danced professionally by bringing them back to perform principal roles in the ballet. We already have our first professional dancer from Panama City signed on to perform as the Sugar Plum Fairy! Thank you Stacy Graham for being a vital part of our inaugural year!!!

Please visit our website if you are interested in becoming a sponsor, and please visit our Facebook and Instagram pages for up to date information as we begin our journey.

We are looking to hold open auditions the second weekend of August for dancers ages 5 & up.

Please feel free to contact us with any questions and Happy Dancing!!!!!
