Celebrate the season with Arizona's 26-year holiday tradition
Enjoy the magic of this beloved holiday classic through the eyes of Clara, who wakes in the land of the Sugar Plum Fairy and is entertained by dances including Arabian Coffee, Chinese Tea and the
Waltz of the Flowers. It's a famous journey of magic and wonderment.
You can count on it to bring pleasure, not only for its dancing, but for its sets and the many touches of stage magic that make it so irresistible to young hearts.- The Arizona Republic
Remember that this theatre does NOT issue individual tickets, I will have a group invoice. Therefore, we will meet at 10:00am in front of Phoenix Symphony Hall (near the stairs inside the Convention Center Lobby) to gather as a group and be ready to go inside when they begin seating. Please check in with me so that I know that you have arrived. I have found that people are able to locate my identical twin daughters in a crowd easier than finding me. They always dress alike, and their photographs can be seen at http://www.theparsonsfamily.com . If you arrive late, it's possible that we've already gone into the theatre. Let the theatre company representative know that you are in Jan Parsons' Homeschool group. I always let them know if there are families that haven't arrived when we go into the theatre. It is at their sole discretion, however, on when and where you are seated. Most of the companies fill the theatre from front to back, row by row, so it's probable that you will not sit with our group if you arrive late. They may choose to seat other groups before you. If the show has already begun, they may require you to wait for an appropriate time so as not to disturb others, meaning that you may miss some of the show.
