Description

Columbia Dance’s annual Nutcracker isn’t the typical holiday fare. This uniquely Vancouver production reimagines Tchaikovsky’s classic through the lens of local history, from Fort Vancouver’s fur traders to the Chinook “moon woman” Ilchi. Artistic Director Becky Moore and company dancer Ruby Dyer share how the nonprofit’s mission to enrich lives through dance extends beyond the stage, building community, inclusivity, athleticism, rigor and artistry in every step.
