Audition to be part of an all-new Annapolis-themed Nutcracker, premiering December 2025!
Ballet Theatre of Maryland is thrilled to announce that it will draw upon familiar Annapolitan landmarks and events to bring the city its very own Nutcracker with all-new sets and costumes as well as fresh choreography by Artistic Director, Nicole Kelsch.
Dancers a part of the Student Cast of BTM's The Nutcracker have the opportunity to dance alongside the professional company in rehearsals and on stage!
