🎄🩰 We have a Nutcracker star in our midst!
We’re so excited to share that our very own Dr. Jessica Taylor and her husband, John Paul, will be appearing in the first scene of Mélange Dance Company’s production of The Nutcracker this year!
The Nutcracker has become such a special Jackson County Christmas tradition, and we can’t wait to see Dr. Taylor and John Paul help bring a little extra holiday magic to the stage. ✨
We’ll be cheering them on and can’t wait to watch! ❤️🎄🩰
We are adding another fabulous crew of dancers to our cast list… our First Scene Adults!
Being an adult in First Scene is truly a coveted role!
These women are special to us! They are Melange Dance Company alumni who have grown up loving this production. They now have the opportunity to return to the stage in such an important part of our production.
The First Scene adults help bring the party scene to life while carrying on traditions that have been part of our production for years. There is something so special about watching former Melange dancers return as adults and become part of the magic all over again. ❤️
Welcome to the First Scene, ladies (& gentlemen)! We can’t wait to see you bring this beloved tradition to life. 🎄🩰💕
