The verdict is in.  The 2012 Chocolate Nutcracker in Birmingham wowed the crowd.  From beginning to end, dancers aged 5 and up owned the stage in scene after scene as parents, grandparents, family and friends looked on with pride and delight.  "How do they remember all of those moves?" remarked a grandmother as she watched in amazement, "This is a total treat for me!"
