Abigail - Reed Pipe Lead - Dancer Spotlight

I have participated in MPBT’s Nutcracker since 2018. This will be my seventh year performing, and I am so excited to take the stage again! I am looking forward to many different events including all the cast bonding through secret Santa and getting ready backstage. I also can’t wait to perform with all my friends this year on stage.

The Nutcracker has always been an important tradition in my life and looking back on the many years I have done it, a great memory is the final show on Sunday when all the leads give their last secret Santa present. This always makes me so happy knowing how much everyone cares for each other.

Participating in the Nutcracker is a large time commitment, with many weeks of rehearsals leading up to all of the shows, but it is always worth all of the time and effort. Every year I look forward to seeing the final product and the thrill of performing.
