The Nutcracker by Alba Ballet 2014

The Nutcracker by Alba Ballet 2014. A journey that started way back in 2012 to give students the opportunity to take part in a full scale Classical Ballet production. The Nutcracker was performed over two nights to full houses at the The Beacon Arts Centre in Greenock.

The company comprised of 37 members which included our guest artists from London Erin O’Toole, and from Birmingham Tim Hill who played the roles the our lead male and females in our production. Both Tim and Erin brought a wealth of experience to the company, with both dancers performing many lead roles with English National Ballet and Birmingham Royal Ballet.
