Our 46th Annual production of The Nutcracker is quickly approaching, and we are working with The Civic Dance Center Parent Guild to raise funds for The Nutcracker Orchestra. Our production is unique in that we are one of just a few companies that performs with a live orchestra. The harmonious collaboration between live music and ballet has long been recognized as a powerful artistic combination and is a special quality of our production we want to continue to offer our dancers and community.

I ask that you take a couple minute to look over the donor information. If you are so inclined, please make a tax deductible donation to continue this wonderful tradition. Also please forward this information to friends and/or family who share an interest in the arts and would like to support this event.

Many donations make this happen. Of course, we love the large donors, but we have learned from experience that no amount is too small and many different donor levels make this artistic collaboration possible. Please feel free to contact a member of the Parent Guild or a Board Member of Bakersfield City Ballet if you need more information. If necessary, a paper copy of the packet can be made available at the front desk of the studio.

Thank you,

Erica Ueberroth
