Tri-City residents Kyra Soo (in green) plays Dew Drop while Makena Ram is Snowflake in the Goh Ballet presentation of The Nutcracker, which runs Dec. 21 to 23 at the Queen Elizabeth Theare in Vancouver.

Soo, a Grade 12 Riverside secondary student in Port Coquitlam, is double cast in the prestigious role with Ashley Coupal of North Vancouver, dancing on alternating nights for the company’s 10th anniversary production — with a solo in Act II for the Waltz of the Flowers.

Soo said she’s especially keen on sharing the stage with principal dancers from the American Ballet Theatre, with steps by Emmy-award winner and Canadian choreographer, Anna-Marie Holmes, and live music by the Vancouver Opera Orchestra.
