Come see Lexington residents perform with an ensemble the Great Boston area and guests from around the world.
Lexington residents Miranda Ripley and Lotte Van Der Meijden will perform in the Northeast Youth Ballet’s The Nutcracker.
The premier show starts at 10 a.m. on Thursday in the J. Everett Collins Center for the Performing Arts, 100 Shawsheen Road, Andover.
"Northeast Youth Ballet’s The Nutcracker is the enchanting journey of a young girl named Clara in 1835’s Germany who embarks on an adventure through a winter wonderland to a palace of sugary sweets," the event post states. "Featuring the talents of more than 125 dancers who auditioned from the Greater Boston area, along with international guest artists hailing from Australia, Columbia, Puerto Rico, Hawaii and New York, the production will occur once again at the J. Everett Collins Center for the Performing Arts in Andover, MA. Exquisite dancing, beautiful costumes, lavish sets, and Tchaikovsky's brilliant score guarantee a magical holiday experience."
