Brewton Dance to host 25th Nutcracker performance

For the last 25 years, December has dawned with the darling dancers of the Brewton Dance Studio. Under the direction of Ann Peavey, scores of ballerinas – both young and experienced – have graced the Jefferson-Davis Community College stage in the holiday classic, The Nutcracker. This year’s featured cast members include (above) Morgan Manning as Clara; Steven McCall as the Nutcracker; Bridget Casey as the Sugar Plum Fairy; Callie Wiggins and Daisy Canty as the Chinese acrobats; Auburn Schoonover as the Tree Fairy; Tess Thomas as the Dew Drop Fairy; Taylor Burns as the Snow Queen, and Sara Perkins as the Rat King. This year’s performance will be held Sunday at 2 p.m. Advanced tickets are $5 and available at the studio or at the door the day of the performance for $8.
