The Christmas Ball on Lifetime: What is the Movie About?
Lead ballerina Clare Fitzgerald (Deidre Mullins) is devastated to be let go before the Christmas season’s ‘Nutcracker.’ But, she jumps at the opportunity to visit her Aunt Bridget (Caroline Langrishe) in England during the holidays. While there, she meets Liam (Nick Hendrix), a local professor and historian who is helping her aunt preserve the family manor. When Clare discovers that Christmas Regency balls were once held at the manor, it prompts Aunt Bridget to propose they hold a ball as part of Liam’s presentation to the preservation society.
