Sweet dreams come true! East Ridge sixth-grader Stella Tompkins has been cast as the main role, Clara (also known as Marie), in New York City Ballet’s Company "The Nutcracker," performed at Lincoln Center for the duration of the holiday season. Stella has been studying ballet with The School of American Ballet since she was six by audition and after three audition years has finally received her dream role.
Congratulations, Stella!
