Wheres Amy attended Gregory Hancock Dance Theatre’s “The Nutcracker” Dec. 7 at Pike Performing Arts Center in Indianapolis. The modern interpretation of the holiday classic tells the tale of compassion and self-discovery through the eyes of Klara, a street orphan. Her harsh reality is transformed into a world of beauty through a simple act of kindness. Dancers Josie Moody (Noblesville) and Audrey Holloway (Fishers), from the pre-professional dance company G2, were pure magic with a multi-talented cast of dancers. The version is beautiful and brings out the true meaning of the holidays. If you missed the production, be sure to join Where’s Amy at GHDT’s next performances of “Once Upon A Time” in February and for the powerful “Exodus,” returning for a limited engagement April 3-5.
