Here's a chance to win three tickets to a performance this Saturday in Columbus.
Quest Federal Credit Union is giving away three tickets to the Nutcracker Suite to be performed at 2 p.m., Friday, Dec. 23, by the Ballet Met at the Ohio Theatre in Columbus.
The ballet is about Young Clara who invites us inside her imagination with The Nutcracker, a Columbus tradition since its world premiere in December 1974. Choreographed by former artistic director Gerard Charles, this magic-filled ballet draws families with its merry characters, gorgeous set, elegant costuming—and a good dose of holiday nostalgia.
