The Grand Rapids Ballet will open “The Nutcracker” this weekend at DeVos Performance Hall in Grand Rapids.  I’m excited to partner with them on all kinds of special activities!  Friday night I have the honor of being a guest, “Mother Ginger”-I’m excited and nervous to play this role!  Then, this weekend on “Where You Live” we’ll take you behind the scenes of the production for all kinds of backstage fun!  On Sunday there’s a special “Clara’s Nutcracker Benefit” at the Amway and the Sunday evening performance with our 100 winners and their guests! 

There’s still time to save on Nutcracker tickets!  December 8-10 The Grand Rapids Ballet is offering a special Maranda Rate!  Call the Ballet Box Office at 616/454-4771 x10 and mention the password Maranda to receive Buy-One-Get-One FREE ticket to the Thursday, Dec. 17th show.  You can also get Buy-One-Get-One Half off on other evening shows.  Call the Ballet for complete details.  

This is a such a great holiday tradition for many families!  I’d love hear why the Nutcracker is special to you!
