After 20 years, Charlene Brown is still artistic director of “The Nutcracker.” She invites all who danced at Island Dance and were involved in the 1991 Nutcracker production in any way or performed in the 1992 first year of “Living Room” to be her guest at the 20th Anniversary Nutcracker.

A celebration performance is set for 2 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 9, at the South Whidbey High School Performing Arts Center.

Amy Berto, pictured at right kneeling, was part of the original cast and remains with Whidbey Island Dance Theater as the current assistant artistic director.

Anyone involved should call Lynn at 341-2308 or email info@widtonline.org.
