Hear from our Ice Princess, Frost Fairy, and Firebird!

(From left to right):
Nina — This Year's Ice Princess:

I am really excited for my grandparents who live in Pennsylvania to come because they have never had a chance to see me perform before. My first memory in TSM was sitting backstage with all my friends the year when I was Jack Frost. It is really fun to have the tradition of doing The Snow Maiden and doing different roles from year to year. My favorite character is the North Wind, and my favorite dance is the Entrance of the Snow Maiden when she returns to the Land of the Snow. What I really like about rehearsals is that I get to see my friends while getting to dance as well!

Grace — Returning as the Firebird

Some of my dance inspirations are Natalia Osipova, Akane Takada, and Marianela Nuñez. I am also inspired by friends in class! I am most excited for my family to come to the show because they can see me in my happy place and having fun doing what I love. My favorite thing about rehearsal is being able to bond with other students at SCD and watch them improve from show to show. I also love watching their personality and acting show through in their performances. My favorite dances to perform are the West Wind and the Firebird because they are both so challenging — and fast!

Maren- Revisiting the Frost Fairy
I can't believe that this is my final year of performing The Snow Maiden! My favorite part has always been the finale of the show. Everyone is feeling the endorphins after performing on stage and everyone just gives it there all! Also love the community that grows within every dancer in the cast.

❄️JUST THREE WEEKS AWAY: The Snow Maiden
Returning to the Sebastiani Stage on December 14 & 15 at 1:00pm❄️

With a cast comprised almost entirely of children, ages six to 18, The Snow Maiden is a full-length Ballet and Character dance performance recounting a beautiful Russian folktale filled with love and magic.

Come enjoy the story of Lel, the Russian shepherd boy who falls head-over-heels in love with the beautiful and mystical Snow Maiden.

Rounding out the cast are sweet Snow Drops and Icicles, fierce Snow Guards, four powerful Winds, a fun Snow Family, an icy Snow Queen, and many more creatures of wonder from a mysterious otherworld of perpetual winter.

Join our audiences as they ooh-and-aah to the very end: Will Lel win the heart of the lovely Snow Maiden, or will she disappear, melting away with the thaw of spring?

❄️FALTAN SÓLO TRES SEMANAS: La Doncella de la Nieve Regresa al teatro Sebastiani los días 14 y 15 de diciembre a la 1:00pm ❄️

Con un elenco compuesto casi en su totalidad por niños de entre seis y 18 años, The Snow Maiden es un espectáculo de ballet y danza de personajes de larga duración que cuenta un hermoso cuento popular ruso lleno de amor y magia.

Ven a disfrutar de la historia de Lel, el pastor ruso que se enamora perdidamente de la bella y mística Doncella de las Nieve. Completan el reparto las dulces gotas de nieve y carámbanos, feroces guardias de nieve, cuatro poderosos vientos, una divertida familia de nieve, una helada reina de las nieves y muchas más criaturas maravillosas de un misterioso otro mundo de invierno perpetuo. Únase a nuestra audiencia mientras gritan exclamaciones hasta el final: ¿Lel se ganará el corazón de la encantadora Doncella de las Nieves o desaparecerá y se derretirá con el deshielo de la primavera?
