Every year, theatre seats for The Nutcracker are filled with families, friends, and art patrons of all ages. The absence of this year’s live performances leaves a hole in our hearts and in our pockets. We must replace this revenue - an average profit of $17 per ticket. Please consider donating $17 for each Nutcracker ticket you would have purchased to support our ongoing creative, educational, and operating expenses.
Our celebrated Studio Series has gone virtual! EVENINGS this year is a stunning collection of new dance films, choreographed by our dancers and filmed in various locations around Santa Barbara. Check it out on our YouTube Channel and get inspired!
