Beth Fowler Dance Company Nutcracker Movie
Donation protected
The Dancers of the Beth Fowler Dance Company and School of Dance were at the Egyptian Theatre on March 12th 2020 about to open their first show of "The Wizard of Oz" when they were told the show was canceled and it was time to pack the show up and go home! It was devastating! Trying to keep their spirits up, they continued their technique classes, competitive and show rehearsals on ZOOM but after awhile, it seemed to be nothing more than going through the motions for something that felt was all for nothing. After months of uncertainty and frustration, it was decided that everything they had been working on, would be postponed for another year!
Knowing our 27th Annual Nutcracker this December would be a big highlight, we were determined that if rehearsals started, it wouldn't be for nothing!!
The only way to make this happen is to convert our Nutcracker into a "Nutcracker Movie" that would be shown at the Egyptian Movie Theatre throughout the month of December on the Big Screen!!
So a Movie Producer and Film Crew were hired!
This year's Nutcracker will be a Movie with an extended new storyline, dialogue, special green screen effects and Red Carpet Appearances for our Movie Stars!
The Beth Fowler Dance Company will continue this 27 year tradition to keep our community in the holiday spirit while all other Nutcrackers are canceled!
We are asking for help from the community to keep this tradition going for our youth as well as our community!
Funds are needed to be raised by November 1st, to help offset the large cost to make this film.
The Egyptian Theatre is working closely with the Health Department to create safe events and also special showings for our COVID sensitive guests and grandparents.
The success of this GoFundMe Program will mean so much to the community that attends each year and to the many Dance Families that attend both the Genoa, IL and St. Charles, IL Beth Fowler Dance Locations!
We appreciate the warm response we have received for thinking outside the box in these difficult times!
Thank you for your time and consideration!
