    The Triangle Youth Ballet will perform Tchaikovsky’s classic 125 year-old Russian ballet, “The Nutcracker, Act 2” with twenty dancers accompanied by an orchestra of ten musicians. Ballet founder and artistic director Lauren Lorentz de Hass and musical director Andrew McAfee will share why this story is considered a classic by identifying those elements of dance and music that delight us year after year.
