F ROM T H E A RT I S T IC DI R E CTOR

Welcome to the Diamond Anniversary of Willam Christensen’s wonderful production of The Nutcracker! It was sixty years ago that our founder “Mr. C” combined the forces of his University Theater Ballet and the Utah Symphony to present his unique and charming take on the Tchaikovsky/Petipa classic. Actually, Mr. C’s version of The Nutcracker was the first full-length American production. He created it while he was the Artistic Director at San Francisco Ballet, ten years prior to the Utah premiere. The University Theater Ballet started this tradition before it morphed into the Utah Civic Ballet and then finally Ballet West. Throughout the decades, The Nutcracker has remained a mainstay and an important part of the company’s repertoire. It also has remained meaningful to our community, who have been bringing their families to this enduring favorite for generations. When you see it, you immediately know why. It is filled with color and charm, it is a perfect story for children, but also has challenging dancing which is inspiring for ballet aficionados, and exciting athleticism which is great for the novice to appreciate. Through it all is Tchaikovsky’s beloved score – which remains recognizable and charming to every audience. Mr. C changed aspects of his production many times over the years, from costuming to choreography. He and his brother Lew (who took over in San Francisco when Mr. C moved to Utah), would share ideas and this frequent updating served to keep the ballet fresh and alive. The public saw something new each year, and Mr. C maintained the framework and charm of the story that kept audiences coming back. In my nine years at the artistic helm of Ballet West, I have endeavored to keep the production just as vibrant by working with some of Mr. C’s closest associates to return elements that had not been seen in decades. Re-incorporating the male role in the Spanish dance, featuring five, instead of three Russian dancers, and reintroducing lost elements to the corps and principals alike among other more subtle aspects. Most recently, the interpolation of Lew Christensen’s Dragon dance in the Chinese variation (something I was told was Mr. C’s idea) is another way we are keeping the production current while upholding Mr. C’s vision. It is this history, legacy, and a continual polishing to keep the production fresh that has made this enchanting version the longest running Nutcracker in America, and perhaps the world. We in Utah have so much to be proud of. I rank this magnificent production as a gem in our spectacular cultural landscape. It was indeed the first full American version of this holiday favorite, and for me – and Alastair MacCaulay, the head dance critic of The New York Times – it is one of the best. We are grateful for your patronage and wish each and every one of you the happiest of holidays!

Adam Sklute, Artistic Director

F ROM TH E E X ECU TI V E DIR ECTOR

WELCOME to the Diamond Anniversary of Ballet West’s The Nutcracker! Not only is our Company the guardian of the longest-running production of The Nutcracker in the Western Hemisphere, created by our founder, Willam Christensen, but this year, we are also celebrating the 60th continuous year of this beloved holiday tradition. In a time when television shows last a few episodes and movies are lucky if they get two weekends in theaters, Willam Christensen’s The Nutcracker is an icon in the art world. It has enchanted children, dazzled adults, and introduced multiple generations to ballet. The Nutcracker has been performed in front of millions and delighted ambassadors, presidents, and royalty across the nation. For many, (including my own family), The Nutcracker has become the hallmark of the holiday season. I recently met a family who will attend this Season with three generations of family members, and they’ve watched this timeless story unfold every year for the past 35! It speaks volumes of the lasting power of dance – and this ballet in-particular – that so many of you return annually to share in this rich tradition. When the New York Times called Ballet West’s The Nutcracker the best in the United States, it underlined that our production is just as powerful, relevant, and endearing to families as it was 60 years ago. In December, Ballet West ramps-up to present this whimsical story for your family. I’d like to give thanks to the dancers, administrators, musicians, crew, and all the young children’s cast (and their families), who give 100 percent this time of year to stage this incredible production. It literally takes an army, and no accolade can thank them enough for their commitment and talent. In addition to all of those at Ballet West who make this production possible, it’s paramount to pause and give thanks to our loyal members and patrons. You enable Ballet West to continue to present world-class entertainment. We thank you for your ongoing and generous support. If you are not a member, I encourage you to get a brochure, or see the benefits online, and become a member or patron of Ballet West. From our family to yours, we wish you a safe, healthy, and joyful season!

T H E S TO RY THE NUTCRACKER begins at the Stahlbaum home on Christmas Eve. Mr. and Mrs. Stahlbaum and their children Clara and Fritz are busy preparing for the evening festivities. The guests arrive, including Clara’s Godfather, Herr Drosselmeyer. Herr Drosselmeyer has fashioned a special gift for Clara, a Nutcracker designed in the form of a small soldier. Clara falls in love with her Nutcracker at once. That night, Clara is unable to sleep without one more look at her beloved Nutcracker. She tiptoes back into the living room and cradles it once more before falling asleep. She is not sure if she is dreaming or not, but before her eyes are huge mice playing in front of the Christmas tree that has grown to a tremendous size. The Nutcracker fights with the Mouse King and, in the heat of the battle, Clara takes off her slipper and throws it at the Mouse King. While he is distracted, the Nutcracker stabs him with his saber. After the battle, the Nutcracker is magically transformed into a handsome prince and, grateful to Clara for saving his life, invites her to accompany him on a journey to the fabled Kingdom of the Sugar Plum Fairy. En route, they pass through the exquisite land of the Snow Queen and her Prince. Act II begins in the land of the Sugar Plum Fairy, where Clara is entertained by an array of divertissements, including Spanish, Arabian and Chinese dancers, as well as Mother Buffoon, with her many children who appear from under her gigantic skirt. The evening concludes with the grand pas de deux performed by the Sugar Plum Fairy and her Cavalier. Following the pas de deux, Clara is whisked away with her prince in a flying sled, while waving goodbye to the Sugar Plum Fairy and her magical kingdom.

LEADERSHIP

Adam Sklute ARTISTIC DIRECTOR, BALLET WEST & BALLET WEST ACADEMY

Since 2007, Adam Sklute has expanded Ballet West’s repertoire, visibility, and overall outlook with exciting Company premieres, increased touring and public exposure, and greater focus on Ballet West Academy and Ballet West II. Under Sklute’s leadership Ballet West has toured extensively, appearing three times at Washington DC’s Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts to sold out audiences; a weeklong engagement at New York City’s Joyce Theater; Chicago’s Auditorium Theater with two separate programs; twice at New York City Center’s Fall for Dance Festival; and twice at the Chicago Dancing Festival. The Company has also appeared at Wolf Trap National Park for the Performing Arts, The Laguna Dance Festival, Aspen, CO, Dallas, TX, twice in Las Vegas, NV, Minneapolis, MN, and Victoria, BC. In 2009, Ballet West graced the cover of Dance Magazine for the first time in 25 years and again was on the cover in 2013. Under Sklute, the Company has garnered numerous reviews and articles in such publications as The New York Times, The Washington Post, Dance Magazine, Ballet Review, and Pointe to name a few. Ballet West was the subject of the BBC Worldwide Production’s docu-drama television series Breaking Pointe which aired for two seasons on The CW channel. Sklute has introduced Ballet West audiences to such renowned contemporary choreographers as Nicolo Fonte, Jiri Kylián, Mark Morris, and Twyla Tharp, among others, all while expanding the company’s Balanchine repertoire and adding early 20th century Diaghilev-era masterpieces. In addition to reintroducing lost elements of Christensen’s production of The Nutcracker and reconstructing his The Firebird, Sklute conceived and produced his own new versions of Swan Lake, The Sleeping Beauty and Giselle. Sklute has created wildly successful annual programmatic additions to the Season, including a Family Series and Innovations programs. All in all, in his eight years as Artistic Director, Sklute has introduced over thirty new works and nearly forty world premieres to Ballet West. A native of Berkeley, California, Sklute began dancing at the age of 16. His early training was at the Oakland Ballet and San Francisco Ballet schools. After only two years of formal study Sklute became one of the last two artists personally chosen by Robert Joffrey for The Joffrey Ballet. He danced with The Joffrey from 1985 to 2000 and then rose through the ranks to Associate Director in 2005. He became Artistic Director for Ballet West in 2007. Sklute has served on the boards of Chicago’s Dance for Life, Salt Lake Community College, School of the Arts Advisory Board; and the Salt Lake County Cultural Facilities Master Plan Advisory Board. He currently serves on the Board of the Gerald Arpino/Robert Joffrey Foundation. A finalist judge and international representative for numerous ballet competitions including the Youth America Grand Prix, Los Angeles’ Spotlight Awards, The International Ballet Competition, The Japan Grand Prix, and an adjudicator for the American College Dance Festival Association, Sklute was listed as one of the 25 Movers and Shakers of the Utah Arts Scene in 2007. In 2014 he was named one of Utah’s Enlightened 50 and he received the Utah National Guard’s Bronze Minuteman Award for outstanding service to Utah and the nation.

LEADERSHIP

Scott Altman BALLET WEST EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR THE ELIZABETH SOLOMON EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR CHAIR

Scott Altman joined Ballet West as Executive Director in 2013, bringing with him nearly three decades of experience in nonprofit administration and performing arts. A respected industry leader, Altman has worked most of his career to advance the arts through entrepreneurial growth, fiscal sustainability, and by maximizing organizational achievements. Under Altman’s skilled leadership, Ballet West has experienced phenomenal expansion. With a concentrated focus on Ballet West Academy, the attendance of the school has grown 75 percent. The physical footprint has also increased significantly, with a new satellite location in Lehi, Utah at Thanksgiving Point, which opened in August, 2014. The Company is witnessing a true renaissance, unique for an organization in its 52nd year. In the last two years, under Altman, Ballet West has witnessed a 21 percent growth in ticket sales, vastly expanded touring schedule, robust growth in donor development, and a renewed and energized Board of Directors. In that time, Altman has been a guardian of the fiscal health of the organization, balancing the operational budget while establishing a robust cash reserve. Most recently, he facilitated a watershed campaign, the 12-month long “Million Dollar Challenge,” which completely eliminated $2.2 million in operational debt; the first time the Company had achieved the eradication of operational debt in 33 years. Upon his arrival at Ballet West, Altman helped negotiate financing and oversaw the construction of the Jessie Eccles Quinney Ballet Centre, which was completed in December of 2014. This beautiful new 55,000 square foot home for Ballet West, which is LEED-certified, provides space for studios, costume and administrative space, and is a beacon to the arts community in Utah, and beyond. Previous to Ballet West, Altman was the General Director of Phoenix-based Arizona Opera where, under his leadership, the company experienced unprecedented patron and audience development, and achieved financial stability by launching – and completing – an $8.5 million capital campaign. Altman also oversaw the design and construction of a spectacular new Opera Center in central Phoenix, which incorporated administrative, performance, production, education, and community space. Recently, Altman attended Stanford University’s Executive Program for Nonprofit Leaders, an elite certificate program for nonprofit administrators. Altman is also the recipient of the New Jersey State Council on the Arts Citation of Excellence Awards for 2007, 2008, and 2009. Professional activities include, among many others, serving as Regional and District Adjudicator for the Metropolitan Opera National Council, Altman has embedded himself in the community, and is a member of the Salt Lake Rotary, Salt Lake Chamber of Commerce, Utah Nonprofits Association, and is a founder of the Ballet West Ballers, the official softball team of the Company. Prior to his roles in administration, Altman had a successful 20-year career as a professional singer and performed 37 opera roles internationally. Along his path to administration, he was also an adjunct professor of opera at Princeton University. Altman completed his Masters of Music degree at Manhattan School of Music in New York after receiving a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the State University College at Purchase in Purchase, New York. He lives in Salt Lake with his wife and two sons.

CHOREOGRAPHER

Nicolo Fonte RESIDENT CHOREOGRAPHER

Choreographer Nicolo Fonte has created over 40 new works for dance companies spanning the globe, garnering praise and generating excitement for his daring and theatrical approach to dance. The Australian Ballet, Royal Danish Ballet and The Dutch National Ballet, among many others, all have works of his in their repertoire. Whether made to Ravel’s brash Bolero or the quiet intricacy of a Bach violin piece, Fonte ballets have common ground: “The choreography is inventive, creating expressive original shapes built on an undercurrent of implicit human relationships” (Foyer/ Dance Europe). “What impresses the most is that his choreography is obviously the result of a personal reflexion - distinctly and unmistakably Fonte, proof of a rare quality” (Michel Odin / Danse). In addition to dancing his overwhelmingly successful “Bolero" and the enigmatic "Immeasurable Cadences Within", since becoming Resident Choreographer for Ballet West in 2012, Nicolo has created the very powerful and exciting "The Rite of Spring" and the jarringly beautiful “Presto", both to audience and critical acclaim.
