"One of the Country’s top regional Ballet Companies... Pittsburgh Youth Ballet looked poised and confident as they swiftly ran through their paces... (It) gilds The 'Nutcracker' lavishly... a sugary assortment of characters in a remarkably sumptuous production... a hothouse of talent that is developing a national reputation." - Jane Varnish, Dance Critic for The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
