SPRINGFIELD BALLET COMPANY
Issue No. 72
 July 2018
Christmas in July!

Every holiday season the Mouse King has one wish... to defeat The Nutcracker in an epic battle with the toy soldiers and Clara.

Will this year be THE YEAR?! We don't think so!
 
Instead of training, it looks like he's just lounging by the pool and dreaming of American cheese.
 
As YOU enjoy the warmth of summer, you may find it's not too early to have visions of sugarplums (or cheese) dancing in your head.
 
Our skilled dancers and audiences of children and families count on your support to help bring those unforgettable visions to life in our annual production of  The Nutcracker .
 
Your generous donation helps the Springfield Ballet Company thrive  in a world where funding for the arts continues to fall short.

 We sincerely thank you for your continued support and for making our Christmas  in July  campaign a great success!
