ALBANY --
A classic Holiday performance came to Albany this weekend and wrapped up their final show on Sunday afternoon.

The Ballet Theatre South performs "The Nutcracker" every two years and says it's always a popular production because it's different than normal dance recitals.

"Lots of these boys and girls dance in town but Ballet Theatre South presents a full-length production, it tells the whole story so it gives them a chance to not only dance but to act and to story tell a little bit,” says Zan Twiggs, the President of the Ballet Theatre South.

Twiggs says being involved in the arts round out a child's education and are good for the community, as well.
