Backstage at Sneak Peek

Each season, the FIM gets us into the holiday mood with Sneak Peek, a free family event showcasing annual holiday performances. Each November, we decorate the building with life-sized nutcrackers and toy-soldiers, put up a beautiful holiday tree filled with sparkling ornaments and lights and set up the GIANT rocking chair from the Nutcracker. Children attending the event can take home a souvenir photo of themselves sitting in the chair, with the mice and toy-soldiers from the Nutcracker cast alongside.

The preparation for Sneak Peek involves nearly everyone in the organization from maintenance, security and marketing, to instructors, musicians and managers. We bake goodies, set up live feeds for viewing rehearsals and plaster the community with fliers and posters. The choirs, band, dancers and actors rehearse and we fill the place with Poinsettias. Banners are hung on the building with care as the holiday spirit wafts through the air!

We know you enjoy the Sneak Peek, so we thought you might find a photo gallery of the preparation that goers into the event interesting.
