Johnny Mercer Theatre
A holiday classic is arriving early this year at the Johnny Mercer Theatre. It will be the second-to-last day of November when the extremely talented lineup of dancers from the South Carolina Ballet Company takes the stage to present The Nutcracker. An ideal excuse to get into the holiday spirit that everyone craves this time of year.
The performance features some of the most compelling dance numbers that you can find anywhere in the country. That's thanks to the keen eye for elegance that the South Carolina Ballet company has been known to exhibit. It's a night to yes, take part in tradition, and immerse yourself in a fantasy world like no other. Yet, that does not mean that you have to lose an ounce of grace from the dancers on stage. If you've never seen a live performance from the South Carolina Ballet company before, those statements might not make sense right now, but trust that they will in time!

The South Carolina Ballet company is once again at the Johnny Mercer Theatre, putting on a classic. It's always a treat to have a chance to catch one of these traditional holiday shows very early in the season. The Saturday, November 29th date on this performance certainly qualifies as "early" in the winter. That's neat because it allows you to get into a festive mood, maybe even before the rest of the people around you. You'll start getting those warm, fuzzy feelings that come with the times! In this situation, you're also going to be treated to one of the most eye-opening renditions of a well-known story where the focus is truly on the talented dancers who will grace the stage.
In many of the different versions of The Nutcracker that play on stages all over the country during this time of year, there tends to be a heavy emphasis on the colors and dolls! You could argue that the performance is very child-oriented. Over the years, however, this company has opted for a much more elegant approach, particularly in the dancers' costumes and even the lighting. Ensuring that the focus of the performance doesn't go to the massive candy canes and even the nutcracker doll that are part of the stage design. Instead, the audience remains glued to the grace and power of the dancers. If you're coming to ballet, that's seemingly the way it should be.
As with any theater show, you want to be sitting a few rows removed from the stage. In this case, the middle of the orchestra section or even the front can be perfect. It gives you a great view, and there are rows in front of you, ensuring you're not up against the stage. From here, you can also have easy access to restrooms, concessions, and some of the other amenities that the theater offers. It's a win-win!
Seats start at a very affordable rate of $79. If you want to see a mix of holiday spirit and elegant dancing, be sure to click the "Buy Tickets" link soon!
