Peyton Etzel of Rogers, AR will be dancing the cherished role of Clara in the upcoming production of Aspen Santa Fe Ballet’s The Nutcracker at Walton Arts Center, Nov. 27-29. Here’s what Peyton had to say about the experience:
“This Nutcracker experience at the Walton Arts Center has been amazing! Being Clara is so much fun – even though it is a ton of work. The local children’s cast has been rehearsing almost every Saturday since the end of August. We all work really hard but Ms. Kate makes it fun. I am really looking forward to working with the Aspen Santa Fe dancers this week. I can’t believe that the performance is only a few days away. It went by so fast!
I have danced in a Nutcracker every year since I was 6. It has become such a special holiday tradition for my whole family. I will be sad when this one is over. I am very thankful to the Walton Arts Center and Aspen Santa Fe Ballet for giving me this wonderful opportunity. These are memories I will cherish forever.
