Welcome to the home of Moscow Ballet's Great Russian Nutcracker in Wabash! The Honeywell Center in downtown Wabash, Indiana, is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The Center is operated by The Honeywell Foundation, Inc, which was established in 1941 by Wabash native, Mark C. Honeywell. Building of the 45,000-square-foot (4,200 m²) Center began in 1940 but was delayed until 1952 due to the shortage of labor and materials needed for World War II. The Center’s gymnasium was informally opened November 19, 1947; however, the entire facility was completed in 1952 and included a roller rink and several meeting spaces. In 1994, a 75,000-square-foot addition expanded the Honeywell Center to include the 1,500-seat Ford Theater, Eugenia's Restaurant and an art gallery.

Nutcracker wouldn’t be Nutcracker without the local Children’s cast! Dancing along side the full professional Russian cast are local Wabash children from the Dance Experience Company. The Dance Experience Company is committed to encouraging all dancers to strive for excellence and enjoy the journey along the way. The studio goal is to provide quality dance instruction through caring, professional instructors in a friendly, family-oriented atmosphere. The Dance Experience Company promotes strong self-confidence, self-respect, discipline, and appreciation through the fine arts of dance. The goal is to inspire every dancer to find the creativity inside herself/himself as "we dance to tell a story" each year. The Dance Experience Company is dedicated to studio families to ensure that everyone is kept well-informed of the progress of each dancer. The success of each dancer is a result of great teamwork between the dance studio and our dance studio families. The Dance Experience Company values the Wabash community and supports many local fundraising efforts. “Together, We Can Make A Difference” is the studio's fundraising motto.
