The Magic Endures: 50 Years of the Nutcracker
The Magic Endures: 50 Years of the Nutcracker
It is a rarity for a theatrical production to run for 50 years. Broadway’s longest-running show, at 35 years, was The Phantom of the Opera, an overnight success and cultural phenomenon. For a ballet like The Nutcracker, whose opening reviews at its 1892 St. Petersburg premiere included such scathing criticism as, “It’s a pity that so much good music is wasted on such nonsense,” to enjoy its 50th anniversary in Flint is remarkable. More remarkable still is how rare a gem the FIM production is, thanks to its deep roots and community connections.
Summer On Stage— Empowering Young Artists Through Theatre
Summer On Stage— Empowering Young Artists Through Theatre
Just as athletes continuously exercise their muscles to stay in shape, artists need to do the same to keep their skills sharp. Flint Youth Theatre’s August performances of The Hobbit helped keep young actors engaged over the summer, with experience levels ranging from beginner to seasoned performer.

Music Therapy
Music Therapy
The FSPA’s music therapy services are provided by board certified music therapists (MT-BC’s), all of whom have clinical experience using evidenced-based musical practices to address health. Using the science of how music affects the brain and other areas of the body, the music is used to address non-musical goals such as: cognitive, physical, social or emotional needs. Sessions may include: improvisation, songwriting, group instrument play, music and movement, and structured music listening. No musical experience is required for individuals receiving the music therapy! Sessions takes place at the Flint School of Performing Arts and nearby community schools/facilities. Sessions are available for adults and children both in individual and group sessions.
