Best local theater production: 'The Nutcracker' by Victoria Ballet Theatre

"The Nutcracker" is a magical experience because of community support and participation.

Brenda Tally, executive director of Victoria Ballet Theatre, said the beloved production is synonymous with the holidays.

Advocate readers voted it the best local theater production in the area.

Families come together, whether they're working behind the scenes or taking in the experience from the audience. It's also a way to introduce young people to dance.

It's a labor of love for those involved.

"We never get tired of it. We look forward to it every year," Tally said.
