    The magic starts with the gift of a little wooden doll. Clara falls asleep, and suddenly, visions of sugarplums are no longer dreams. Dancing snowflakes dazzle her eyes. Toy soldiers come to life and protect Clara against the Mouse Queen and her troop! She enters the Land of Sweets and the audience journeys with her. Come see Central Ohio Youth Ballet’s The Nutcracker at The Woodward Opera House in Mount Vernon the second weekend of December. The magic is ever-expanding as this youth company brings to life the costumes, sets and choreography of this ballet classic. Come dream with us! Central Ohio Youth Ballet’s The Nutcracker has been a holiday tradition in Central Ohio for over 25 years.

      What is a Living History presentation?  It’s simple. An actor brings an historical character back to life.  How do they do it? The actor does in-depth research into the character they have selected and create a presentation around the information that they have learned. The actors do not use a script that has been produced by someone else, but have created their own original dialogue. We at MadCap Living History do our best to represent the character as realistically as they were in life. We delve deeply into their life, and focus on various aspects that we find interest, and believe will find entertaining. We do our best to be accurate and respectful of all of our characters, even the ones that weren’t so respectable.
