Ballet Vero Beach is thrilled to announce an antidote to the cancelling of Nutcracker performances across the globe this holiday season. We have produced a film of the second act of our beloved local take on the classic ballet out of doors this fall. The film will be released for free viewing to inject a healthy dose of holiday magic into our community and beyond.
Partnering with the Indian River Land Trust and The Indian River County Historical Society, the film was shot in multiple locations exclusively in Vero Beach. It features a cast of sixteen professional dancers and twelve student performers from both Riverside Theatre's dance education program and Ballet Vero Beach's own community engagement initiatives.
