Nutcracker Class Changes
We are a few weeks away from heading into the theaters for our performances of Wade Walthall's The Nutcracker! During that time, there will be some changes to the regular weekly class schedule. Click the document linked below to see a list of any changes to your dancer's regularly scheduled classes. Classes that are canceled or modified are highlighted in YELLOW on the rehearsal schedule. Any class not listed will be held as normal.
If these changes impact any Open Ballet Students, or if you have any questions, please contact Mr. Nathan at principal@evergreencityballet.org so that he may assist you.
Rehearsals Reminders and Information
This is the time of year where everyone gets sick. Please keep your dancers home where they can rest and recover faster. Upper Level dancers who don't have a fever but need the physical rest to recover are welcome to come to rehearsals wearing a mask and with their notebook to observe and take notes. REMINDER: there is a zero tolerance of sick dancers at the theaters - please refer to the performance packet for the Illness Policy.
Below you will find the next two weeks of rehearsal schedules:

Thank you from Ms. Debbi
A huge thank you to the people who have dedicated so many hundreds of hours to helping me with the costume construction and alterations, organization, and general preparations so things run smoothly for the shows. Thank you to all those who support the Wardrobe with financial donations and purchases from the Amazon Wish list. With my local supplier closing, rising costs of materials, distribution and supply chain issues, and the exorbitant cost of shipping right now I could not do what I do without all of the support. Thanks to everyone who has worked on building the new Wardrobes which will make storage and transportation of the costumes so much better. Thanks! 😊
Wardrobe Wishlist
Some last minute supplies have been added to the Wardrobe Wishlist to help us get through Nutcracker season. If you feel so inclined to donate anything to our wardrobe department, click the link below and look for items labeled “Most Wanted”. Thank you for supporting ECB and our Wardrobe Department!
