It was a very nice time. I’m glad the Canton Ballet brought this to Steubenville for people to watch. I hope Steubenville can have more shows for us to attend at the Masonic Temple.
I brought my daughter-in-law who did ballet in high school, and her mother, who both enjoyed the nostalgia. Also my 2 year old granddaughter who is in ballet class and was enthralled - at the end she said, "Can we watch it again?" My mother is not into ballet and appreciated that there were many different short dances to keep it interesting. I appreciated that the show was in Steubenville - no drive!
The Masonic theater is really beautiful and just right tiers to be able to see, but I would love to have a better quality sound system for the music, if that would be possible next year.
Thanksgiving weekend worked well for us because most of the people I brought were from out of town, and they will certainly want to come again next year.
Thank you so much for bringing this show to us; it was a real gift to my family members who have had a very hard year.
We had a wonderful evening at the Masonic Temple watching The Nutcracker, performed by the Canton Ballet. A fun experience, the perfect way to start the holiday season. We would see it again!
The performance was very nice. I don't understand the Nutcracker, but I really appreciated their time and hard work to make it special. We enjoyed it.
Wonderful event! I hope this becomes a yearly event
The best ballet I've ever seen in Steubenville! Yes, it's the only one I've seen in Steubenville, but it was very enjoyable.
The dancing was beautiful. I had never heard of the Canton Ballet before, but I do hope to see them again sometime. Apparently they perform the Nutcracker with a live orchestra up in Canton (something the Pittsburgh Ballet never does for the Nutcracker). I'd really love to experience that. The main reason I wouldn't give this Steubenville performance 5 stars is that the musical accompaniment (recorded - and played through less-than-wonderful speakers) was not quite up to the standard of the dancers.
Still, it was a really good performance, given the limitations of the venue. I hope I'll be able to see it again next year.
A lovely theater experience! The Nutcracker Village is a wonderful holiday experience for the family. Having the opportunity to watch the Canton Ballet perform excerpts from the Nutcracker was absolutely the icing on the cake! What a talented group of young people! We enjoyed it so much, and hope it becomes a tradition in years to come!
Great show, great venue. Well done Canton Ballet.
This was such a beautiful experience. I think that the performers were so very talented and each scene just so wonderful. I want to thank the sponsors and the Steubenville Nutcracker Village for bringing the arts to Steubenville.
It was a very enjoyable experience and a comfortable venue.
