JULIEDANCE’s The Nutcracker
DONETSK BALLET, ADELPHI ORCHESTRA AND BALLET STUDENTS OF MISS PATTI’S SCHOOL OF DANCE

As the holiday season approaches, we once again look forward to the music and magic of a timeless dance tradition presented with live music ~ Tchaikovsky’s most beloved ballet, The Nutcracker. Dancing confections, soldiers marching into battle and dastardly rodents combine in a dazzling display culminating in classic fashion with a beautiful princess finding her handsome prince. For the 16th consecutive season, the internationally acclaimed Donetsk ballet company Dance, totaling 195 lavishly costumed performers, present this favorite holiday tradition. Four performances are scheduled Dec 12 thru Dec 14 at Paramus Catholic High School in Paramus NJ.


PROCEEDS TO BENEFIT PEDIATRIC CANCER RESEARCH, CARE & TREATMENT

The performances are sponsored by JulieDance, a non-profit arts organization founded in 1997 by Patti and Darryl Vigon in memory of their beloved daughter, Julie, who succumbed to Ewing’s sarcoma, a rare form of bone cancer, at the age of 12. Julie was a promising young ballerina who distinguished herself as a student at the School of American Ballet at Lincoln Center and as a performer in the children’s repertoire of many New York City Ballet productions. JulieDance is dedicated to fostering participation in and appreciation for dance and music, and to supporting the research and treatment of childhood cancer. In sixteen years, JulieDance has raised $430,000 for pediatric cancer organizations. JulieDance is a 501 (c)(3) organization.
