Berks Ballet Theatre will be closing its 45th season with a virtual spring production entitled âBreathing Space.â
After a successful online streaming this past December of âThe Nutcracker Suite,â the Company was more than ready to take on another virtual performance. âBreathing Spaceâ will have a documentary style feel to it and there are quite a few things that make this production unique.
According to Artistic Director Kelly Barber, there was a lot of confidence within not only the artistic staff of BBT but also the Board of Directors, that another virtual performance would be an exciting venture embraced by its audience.

One of the beloved traditions of the holidays is seeing a production of the Nutcracker ballet. In Berks County and the Lehigh Valley, we are fortunate to have several performed every year. This year, however, is a little different, with arts venues closed because of COVID-19 concerns, so ballet companies are getting creative and recording video of their productions so they can present them virtually.
This is the 52nd production of the classic ballet and it is the longest running Nutcracker in the Lehigh Valley. The production features more than 60 professional, pre-professional and student performers.
Guest artists this year are Oksana Maslova as Sugar Plum Fairy and Sterling Baca as her Cavalier. Both are principal dancers with Pennsylvania Ballet of Philadelphia.
