New Haven Ballet is offering Nutcracker tee shirts for purchase as a fundraiser to support NHB’s Nutcracker 2023 production. Each year we produce a tee shirt in a different color. This year’s Nutcracker tees are Bella + Canvas forest green, unisex sized, and made from 100% airlume combed, ringspun cotton jersey. All unisex youth and adult-sized tees cost $25 and are available in sizes XS to XL. We will be taking orders for Nutcracker tees this Saturday and Sunday, October 7-8, at 70 Audubon Street during Nutcracker rehearsals. Tee shirts must be pre-ordered and prepaid. The deadline to order your NHB Nutcracker tee shirt is Monday, October 9, 2023. We cannot accept late orders. Once the order is placed it will take approximately 4 weeks for the tees to come into the office.

Sample sizes will be in the New Haven office on Saturday and Sunday if you wish to see sizing, color, and quality. To place an order online please follow the link below. Choose the Saturday option and select the size and color tee shirt you would like.

Dear New Haven Ballet Families,

I hope you enjoyed a fantastic summer and are ready to begin the fall. All of us at New Haven Ballet are excited to welcome new and returning students to the studio.

This is an exciting time to be part of New Haven Ballet and I feel privileged to be part of this community. Our first summer residency at Choate was incredible and I look forward to sharing news about expanding the program next summer.

You may see some new faces as Heidi Yu returns to the faculty to teach Levels 2, 3 and 4, and we welcome Julien Kanor who will be working with Mr. Tim and students in the Children’s Division.

During the month of September, I encourage students in Levels 3-8 to try something new by attending one or more of the nine weekly enrichment classes for FREE. Enrichment classes support and maximize a student’s progress and potential. Students in levels 3-8 should participate in at least one weekly conditioning class. Broadway and Contemporary dance classes build physical strength, flexibility, musicality, and broaden a dancer’s overall technical skills and artistry.

Finally, I understand many of us are focused on The Nutcracker. Auditions will be held September 23-24 and are open to students enrolled at New Haven Ballet in Creative Ballet 1 through Level 8. For those who have questions about the process I invite you to attend a meeting on Saturday, September 9.

If you have a general question please do not hesitate to ask Ruth Barker at Tel. 203-782-9038 or email: administrator@newhavenballet.org. If you have questions about billing please reach out to Lucy Weady at businessmanager@newhavenballet.org.

As the Artistic Director I will continue to dedicate myself to this organization, and feel confident that together we will make great things happen at New Haven Ballet!

Yours sincerely,

Lisa Kim Sanborn
