Thank you for 37 years of Drosselmeyer, Allen!
This Nutcracker season we are celebrating an unprecedented achievement by an amazing artist, Allen MacNeill. Last year Allen performed his 37th year in the pivotal role of the mysterious Drosselmeyer in the Ithaca Ballet’s The Nutcracker. Allen has been a consummate professional and an inspiring actor always bringing gravitas to every role that he has done with us, and he has done many: Lord Capulet in Romeo and Juliet, the Queen of Hearts in Alice In Wonderland, the Sorcerer in The Sorcerer’s Apprentice, an Ugly Stepsister in Cinderella, the mayor in The Pied Piper of Hamelin and more. Alas, all good things must come to an end, but join us in congratulating and thanking Allen for 37 amazing years of Nutcrackers.
