Meet a ballerina from José Mateo Ballet Theatre’s production of “The Nutcracker” at the Duxbury Free Library on Wednesday, Nov. 14 at 4:15 p.m. The dancer will read the holiday classic where Clara’s dream world comes to life. Attendees will have the opportunity to view a costume close-up, feel the pointe shoes and ask the dancer questions about what it’s like to be a real life ballerina. This program is recommended for ages five and older with an adult (no babies or toddlers, please) and advance registration for both children and adults is needed.
