BIG SPRING, TX — The Big Spring Symphony will be presenting The Nutcracker Ballet this Saturday, December 21st at 5:30 PM at the Big Spring Municipal Auditorium located at 310 E. 3rd. Doors will open at 4 PM and patrons are encouraged to arrive early. This live performance will be under the direction of Dr. Fagner Magrinelli Rocha and will feature the talented dancers of Ballet San Angelo performing with the magnificent Big Spring Symphony musicians.
TICKETS are general admission and on sale NOW at HEB, Heritage Museum, Karat Patch and online 24/7 at bigspringsymphony.org. Prices are $25 for Adults, $20 for Seniors 55+ and FREE for ALL students college level and down. Tickets will be sold at The Door, but patrons are strongly encouraged to buy in advance. Free student tickets are online at the regular ticket link on the website.
Parking is always a challenge downtown with an event of this size. The Ryan family is allowing parking at the old Big Spring Police Department. The Shroyer Motor Company is moving cars to arrange parking on their used car lot facing 4th Street, including anything adjacent to the church area and Terry Nichols has opened up parking at the former Greyhound Bus Station. The handicap accessible entrance is on the east side of the auditorium. We encourage people to carpool if possible and we are asking those patrons that are fully mobile to leave the closer parking spots open for those that are not.
Here are some other important announcements to consider. There will be a fully functioning climate controlled restroom trailer in the west alley available for attendees with full mobility. The Symphony Guild will be selling bottled water provided by Culligan for any donation for their student Scholarship fund and Nutcracker ornaments for a suggested donation of five dollars – while supplies last. Culligan also provided the water for all the performers and musicians. There will be holiday treat bags distributed after the performance sponsored by Trinity Baptist Church.
This incredible holiday experience has been made possible by the generosity of many donors, including Big Spring Area Community Foundation, Jake Martin, Dora Roberts Foundation, The Broughton Foundation and Permian Basin Area Foundation. The Symphony is also grateful to First Presbyterian Church for providing meals to the musicians and the HEB Helping Here Program for providing gift cards to help provide lunch to the Ballet.
