The Philadelphia  Nutcracker in June? Yes believe it or not this is the starting season of the Philadelphia Ballet Nutcracker season.  The Ballerinas start practicing and learning. Every year as a child my grandmother would take us tot eh city to see the nutcracker.  It is one of my fondest memories.  A few years also I took my son to see the Philadelphia ballet Nutcracker he loves it. So it is not just for the girls.  So when the Philadelphia ballet asked me to come to the Kick of the season event.  I said of course.

Guess what you can come too and meet the Sugarplum Fairy and the Mouse King.  What a different thing to do in the hot of summer talk winter and nutcracker!
