Madison Ballet Gifts Local Families Tickets to ‘The Nutcracker’

“As part of Madison Ballet’s mission to make the arts accessible to all, the organization has partnered with United Way of Dane County to give free tickets for this year’s rendition of The Nutcracker to local families.

In total, Madison Ballet gave 70 tickets to United Way to distribute among families who might not have had the means to attend the festive holiday show. United Way then reached out to local nonprofit partners to help identify families who would benefit the most.

‘No one should be denied the joys of art,’ said Jonathan Solari, CEO of Madison Ballet. ‘Partnering with United Way to provide free tickets to The Nutcracker helps us break down financial barriers to families and children who may not otherwise have the opportunity to experience the magic of ballet.’

In celebration of the dance group’s 40th anniversary, Madison Ballet put together all-new choreography for the show.”
