"For all the visions of sugar plums you'll need this holiday season, take in Contra Costa Ballet's "The Story of Nutcracker."
Contra Costa Times
If your children haven't seen a "Nutcracker," this unique, hour-long version is the perfect place to begin a family tradition. The magical story, colorfully narrated by Marlene Swendsen, unfolds before your eyes. Clara, the brave girl who embodies the spirit of the season, leads you from a whirling party scene to a battle between the King Mouse and the Nutcracker, then on to the Land of Sweets.
