Piedmont Dance Theatre (PDT) will be presenting six performances of the Nutcracker this holiday season. The Nutcracker is a full length ballet with five elaborate sets, 150 costumes, and 100 cast members. The ballet will be performed four times in Kannapolis with two educational outreach performances for third grade students and two performances for the public. There are also two performances in Salisbury with the Salisbury Symphony Orchestra. Last year the Nutcracker was attended by over 5,200 in four days.

While being a part of the Nutcracker provides fabulous performing opportunities, it also requires a serious commitment by each cast member. PDT mounts this major production in 10 short weekends, whereas, most professional companies require up to four full weeks to prepare for such a major production.

The high level of professionalism achieved by PDT is attained by working with fully committed and enthusiastic participants. Please take time to review our rehearsal schedule, policies and procedures before making a commitment to our production.

All rehearsals listed in RED are MANDATORY. No exceptions.
