This was our 1st ever ballet. My 8 1/2 yr old daughters love the Nutcracker story, so they were over joyed with being able to see this in person. The children in the show were adorable, and the dance was amazing. And the Fairy costumes were beautiful!
I would recommend taking your children to this show if they can sit still for 2 hours. There was an intermission at mid point, but the child behind us was a little too young to understand the story & couldn't sit still, so that was a bit of a distraction for us.
Our seats at the Burnsville Performing Arts Center were in the 3rd row from the stage, & off to the left. There was only two times that the performers were out of sight, so they did a good job keeping it where everyone could see what was going on. This was also our 1st time at the Burnsville Performing Arts Center. I was pleased at how easy it was to access, how close and easy the free parking was, and how cozy of an atmosphere it was. We will definitely be back for another show there!
Great show...something my daughters & I will remember for sure!
