The Coastal Youth Ballet Theatre will present “Cinderella” this weekend. I saw it last year and it’s beyond beautiful! Everyone from your little girl to your Grandma will be both humored and enamored with the dancing to tell this classic fairy tale. My favorite characters were the step-sisters!

CYBT’s presentation of The Nutcracker is this weekend!

By Melissa Byers Leave a Comment

The Nutcracker, performed by the Coastal Youth Ballet Theatre, has been a Christmas tradition of ours for the past three years. It’s so beautiful that you’ll find it hard to believe it’s presented by local dance students. The sets are detailed and elaborate. The costumes are, as well. The dancers are so talented and the entire production is very professional.

The year, the shows run Friday, December 6th through Sunday, December 8th, with a 7 p.m. show on Friday and 4 p.m. shows on Saturday and Sunday. They are at Beach Church Auditorium on George Bishop Parkway in Myrtle Beach. Tickets are available online or at the door. They are $20 for adults and $15 for children/seniors.

I promise I get no compensation, nor do I have a child involved. I just love this presentation *that* much. If you can, go. You won’t regret it!

Cinderella tickets are on sale now, don’t miss out

By Melissa Byers Leave a Comment

cindy No, I’m not talking about a reunion concert at the House of Blues (thanks, children of the 80’s, for getting that lame joke). The Coastal Youth Ballet Theatre is performing the ballet, Cinderella in March. If their annual performances of the Nutcracker are any indication of how beautiful the show will be, you’ll be delighted.

The shows will be on Saturday, March 16th at 2 and 7 p.m., and Sunday, March 17th at 4 p.m. Tickets are available on their website. Right now (they are subject to increase), adults are $15 and children/seniors are $10. In my opinion, that’s very reasonable! If you’d prefer, you can call the studio at 843.651.2006 to purchase tickets.

The performances will be in the Beach Church Auditorium on George Bishop Parkway, near the old Freestyle Music Park. Tickets are general admission, so arrive early if you’d like a good seat. Also, during the Nutcracker, concessions were available for purchase during intermission. Hopefully that’s the case for these production, as well.

For photos of rehearsals, check out the Coastal Youth Ballet Theatre on Facebook.

Hope to see you there! I’ve already got my tickets. 🙂

Attention all prima ballerinas! This Sunday, September 9, 2012 from 2 to 4 p.m., the Coastal Youth Ballet Theatre is holding auditions for their annual holiday performance of The Nutcracker. I’ve written about it several times. That show is a time-honored tradition in our family. It’s beautiful!

They are looking for girls ages 4 to 10, boys ages 6 to 10, and adults for the party scenes. I’ve secretly always wanted one of those party roles. 🙂

For more details, check out their site. You can also call (843) 651-2006 for more information. Want to stay up-to-date with all Coastal Youth Ballet Theatre happenings? Like them on Facebook!
