Audience Reviews
By Barry Wilson Feb 16th, 2017
I saw the nutcracker live performance at the Fox last night. Kiara Felder and her partners solo performance in the second half of the show was breath taking; I was moved to tears. She has a gift and you guys are very blessed to have her.The entire show from start to finish was amazing. I will be attending as many performances as possible in the near future. GREAT job! New fan of Atlanta Ballet.

Innovative choreography Family enjoyed it immensely Fox always a special venue.
By Cliff Willis Feb 16th, 2017
The Fox is the most magnificent theater I have ever been in! I am still sharing photographs with friends and encouraging them to go when in Atlanta. The performance was exceptional and I recommend it as a Christmas "must see".
By Sherree Feb 16th, 2017
I took my 5 daughters for a fun Christmas outing. The changes to the second act were disappointing. Missed the emphasis on the Nutcracker and the Rat King, and the dream sequence. However, it was still a very good performance and we enjoyed it very much.
By Jonathan Melville Feb 17th, 2017
This was a really wonderful show. Will definitely be going back next year!

"Atlanta Ballet’s Nutcracker" sparkles with flair and energy as a holiday must-see
Kathleen Wessel, ArtsATL, 2015.12.16
In some cities The Nutcracker tastes like stale fruitcake: a necessary holiday staple endured for the sake of tradition. Thankfully, Atlanta can breathe a peppermint-scented sigh of relief. Atlanta Ballet’s Nutcracker, this time around, is as fresh as a just-cut spruce tree, as comforting and sweet as warm apple cider... It was the strongest Nutcracker I’ve seen in years. Joyously danced by Atlanta Ballet company members and students alike...

It is fitting that the largest public celebration currently planned during McFall’s last season takes place around “The Nutcracker.” His first full-length ballet during his initial year as director, the production has provided essential thrust as the organization has reached new heights in revenues, infrastructure and artistic quality under his watch.
