CIDE is a valued partner of DelightStuck Jen.
For three days every December, Central Indiana Dance Ensemble (CIDE) brings the holidays to life with five performances of Tchaikovsky’s magical Christmas ballet. This year's show is December 14-16, 2018 at the Zionsville Performing Arts Center.
Guests of the show are transported to the Land of Sweets where a cast of characters that includes the Arabian Coffee, Rose, Mother Ginger and her Ginger Snaps and, of course, Sugar Plum Fairy, all delight young Clara and her Nutcracker Prince with spirited dances and iconic, classical ballet variations.
CIDE's, a pre-professional dance company under the direction of Artistic Director Suzann DeLay, holiday tradition of The Nutcracker has become a holiday must-do for our family. They really bring the holidays to life in such a magical way.
And let's face it the holidays can get so expensive, and it can be hard to afford all the holiday performances you'd like to treat the family to - like Yuletide, the Ballet at Clowes Hall and holiday shows at the Old National Centre or the Palladium.
I think that is one of the reasons I love CIDE's performances of The Nutcracker. It's as enchanting as any professional performance I've ever seen at Clowes or the like, but it's so much more affordable and you are supporting local student dancers right in your own "backyard." Tickets are $25 for adults and $18 for students 18 and under. There is a Sugar Plum Fairy Dessert Party you can add on for $12 per child that is held prior to the matinee shows.
With tickets that affordable our family can add a fun holiday dinner out after our matinee or before an evening performance too, and make a whole day or evening of it. I kind of love getting the kiddos dressed up for a Christmas outing, don't you?!
Be sure to be on the lookout for the little bits of humor they throw in the show too. My kids and husband still rave about the Rat King from a couple year's back.
Giveaway Alert! Indiana friends only, comment on the blog or my FB post with your favorite part of The Nutcracker (or if you've never seen, why you'd love to go) and be entered to win a family four pack of tickets for an evening performance of CIDE's Nutcracker.
