Where’s Amy attended Indiana Ballet Conservatory’s opening night of “The Nutcracker” Dec. 13 at Newfields in Indianapolis. The holiday classic delighted and charmed the audience under the brilliant direction of Alyona Yakovleva-Randall (Geist), her talented ballerinas and featured guest artist Lasha Khozashvili. A magical night was had by all. Where’s Amy thinks it’s safe to say that the audience members slept soundly with visions of Sugar Plum Fairies dancing in their heads.
