December was an incredible month to celebrate holiday concerts and shows at DPAC. We had two weeks of ‘Twas the Night Before…by Cirque du Soleil , based on the poem “A Visit from Saint Nicolas” that brought the magic of Cirque to life. Next, we celebrated the 51st anniversary of the extraordinary local show, A Christmas Carol –Presented by Theatre in the Park . It’s been noted as “one of the most successful shows in North Carolina theater history.”
NUTCRACKER!
Magical Christmas Ballet danced their way into DPAC, with puppets, amazing acrobatics, and hand-crafted costumes and sets on Christmas Eve. Then, we welcomed Brian Regan back for a sold-out comedy show that had everyone laughing in their seats. We ended the holiday month with a sold-out, re-imagined version of the classic ballet, The Hip Hop Nutcracker.
We can’t thank you enough for your support in 2024 and look forward to what the new year will bring!
