Dancers Studio Inc is moving their performances of the Nutcracker to Columbus East High School and they will be on Saturday, Dec. 17th instead of Sunday. That’s after a fire on Monday at Columbus North High School’s Erne Auditorium.

The shows will be at 1 and 7 on Saturday, Dec. 17th at the East Auditorium. The studio will honor Sunday tickets at either of the Saturday shows. If you already bought tickets but can’t make either Saturday show you can call 812-376-8080.

Tickets are available from Dancers Studio in advance for $10 for students and $15 for adults. The tickets have previously been available online, but the studio is still working on changing the date and location through the online portal.

Monday’s fire  at Columbus North happened at about 7:44 a.m., when an overhead light burst, sending superheated glass into a plastic light cover. The cover then melted and dropped molten plastic onto the seats below, igniting the fabric. About 25 seats were destroyed. School officials quickly extinguished the fire but there was extensive smoke damage.
