Performing Arts School of Central Pennsylvania To Present ‘The Nutcracker’
Christmas is coming to Happy Valley a few weeks early — The Performing Arts School of Central Pennsylvania will perform everyone’s Christmas favorite, “The Nutcracker,” for two shows in Eisenhower Auditorium this weekend, Dec. 13-14.
