With record community support, Dance Victoria is offering needy kids and their families tickets to The Nutcracker and another dance production
Record support for Dance Victoria’s Nutcracker Kids program has meant more kids and their families can attend performances of The Nutcracker ballet, held around Christmas each year at the Royal Theatre.
“This is the most community partners we’ve ever had,” said Gillian Jones, executive director of Dance Victoria. “We typically do an individual donor campaign to raise money for Nutcracker Kids, but because of the support from the Times Colonist, we felt this year was a great opportunity to expand the reach of our donor campaign,” Jones said.
“There is a lot going on in their lives, so to have a night out at the ballet with a beautiful production, costumes and live orchestra — this is something that these women and families don’t often have a chance to see,” Howard said. Those who receive tickets through the Dance Is For Everyone program will be able to see the Dance Theater of Harlem in March as part of Dance Victoria’s 2022-23 season.
