Nutcracker on the Rocks cast highlight!
Meet
Jessica Partridge- Madame Drosselmeier
Jessica Partridge is a Helena-based dancer, choreographer and teaching artist. Having trained in a wide range of styles—including ballet, modern, jazz, hip-hop, breakdance, and social dance—Jessica brings a deep passion for movement to her work. She has served as a teaching and guest artist in studios and schools across the state, and since 2020, she has been a vital part of Cohesion Dance Project where she teaches modern, creative movement, and adaptive dance, and contributes to the organization’s school and community outreach initiatives. Jessica has danced a variety of roles in Nutcracker on the Rocks over the years and is thrilled to return to the stage this year as Madame Drosselmeier. Recent works include choreography contributions to Fractals in Motion (2024) and Resonance ~ an evening of Art Inspiring Art (2025). Outside of dance, you can find her exploring Montana’s hot-springs and hiking trails, at the ski hill, trying out new soup recipes and starting (if not completing) at least several art projects at a time.
Catch Jessica, as well as the rest of the cast, this November 29 & 30 at The Helena Civic Center. Visit https://helenamt.showare.com/eventperformances.asp?evt=36 for tickets. Link in bio.
