NUTCRACKER TESTIMONIALS
I love UMB so much!!! I love that their ballets are really accessible to college students and that I get to enjoy such beautiful art. I got to introduce my friends to the art of ballet during Nutcracker, which was so fun. I have attended every show this season, and I have enjoyed every single one!
Oh my gosh! I’ve always loved the Nutcracker but this is my first time coming and watching the ballet play. I’m so happy and exited for all the feelings I had today. It was just amazing and breathtaking. Hope I can come and see more things like this, I totally recommend it!
