A New Hampshire Seacoast holiday tradition was filmed by Grinning Moon Creative this year. Grinning Moon was the official videographer for three of Great Bay Academy of Dance‘s six live performances of the holiday ballet “An 1836 Portsmouth Nutcracker.” This unique production adds local Portsmouth flavor to the internationally-known Tchaikovsky ballet. The gorgeous Portsmouth Music Hall venue hosted this “Nutcracker” ballet on December 16th, 17th, and 18th. Over 100 dancers were featured in this production, along with lavish costumes, scenery and live snow on stage.

Copies of the final “Nutcracker” DVDs were delivered to dancers and audience members to enable viewing of the ballet year-round. A representative of Great Bay Academy of Dance said “I think it is marvelous!” after watching Grinning Moon Creative’s DVD of the production.
