The Nutcracker is a beloved holiday ballet. While there are a number of organizations and dance companies presenting this great masterpiece, only one in our area features dancers and a live symphony orchestra.

The Magical Christmas Ballet is part of a national tour, with two performances next Monday and Tuesday at the Hippodrome Theater here in Baltimore. Those performances will be conducted by a young maestro who trained here in Baltimore, Michael Repper. He recently won a Grammy Award and he is an increasingly ubiquitous presence on the national classical music scene.
