Civic Dance Center - Bakersfield, CA

Christmas only comes once a year… unless you join us at Christmas in July.

Meet Clara, the Sugar Plum Fairy, and other beloved characters at an immersive dinner filled with performances, photo opportunities, treats, and family fun. Whether you’re a longtime Nutcracker fan or discovering the magic for the first time, it’s the perfect way to celebrate the season a little early.

Dress in your favorite festive attire and come be merry with us!

Every ticket purchased helps bring the live music to our annual production of The Nutcracker.

As we transition to our new studio software, schedules will be emailed in batches throughout the week. Some families may receive theirs earlier than others, so please keep an eye on your inbox (and spam folder 👀). Reach out if you haven’t recieved anything by Monday, May 18.

Along with summer classes, we’re also excited to introduce several specialty classes this season, including:
✨ Performance Skills
✨ Variations
✨ Pointe Conditioning
✨ Stretch & Conditioning

These classes are designed to help dancers continue building technique, artistry, strength, flexibility, and performance quality throughout the summer.

And yes… the Gen Z slides were absolutely written by people who spend too much time around teenagers.
