Editor: On Friday night, my wife and I saw the Sebastopol Ballet's production of "The Nutcracker" at the Analy High School auditorium. We are so extremely lucky to have a production of this caliber in Sonoma County. The Sebastopol Ballet's production was far better than some large city productions that I have seen. I urge all who enjoy ballet to go to one of the performances. Bring children so they can experience how incredibly beautiful and fun ballet can be. Wayne Salk, Sebastopol
