Boston Ballet - The Nutcracker 11/05/2019

Good morning Honors Students,

The FSU Honors Program cordially invites you to an evening at the Boston Ballet for a performance of THE NUTCRACKER on Tuesday, December 10, 2019 at 7:30pm. Transportation to and from the Boston Opera House will be provided.

The event is being sponsored (in part) by the Honors Program, we are asking students to pay $20 each. If you'd like to attend please let me know ASAP, as I’ll need to purchase tickets. I will need to collect everyone’s $20 pretty quickly as the Boston Ballet will only hold tickets for 2 weeks.

The bus will be departing from the McCarthy Center at 6pm on Tuesday, December 10. The show starts at 7:30pm, the run-time is approx. 2 hours. The bus will then bring us back to the McCarthy Center.

I've sent an email with a attached flyer and off campus consent form. Please RSVP to [email protected].

Hope you can make it!
