How To Access Your Digital Tickets

The most magical night of the holiday season. A cherished tradition that never gets old.

Step into a magical world of wonder and adventure with The Nutcracker, a timeless holiday tradition. This enchanting performance follows Clara, a young girl whose Christmas Eve takes an extraordinary turn when her special Nutcracker doll comes to life. As the story unfolds, Clara is whisked away on a fantastical journey through magical realms, from a battle with the fearsome Mouse King to an enchanting Snow Kingdom. With the help of the Nutcracker, Clara bravely confronts dangers and celebrates with whimsical characters, including the Sugar Plum Fairy.

From the bustling streets of a quaint town to a dreamy world of sprites and snowflakes, this performance brings beloved holiday scenes to life with stunning visuals and breathtaking choreography. Clara's adventure is filled with delightful surprises, including a magical transformation of her living room, a heart-pounding battle scene, and a soaring flight to a world of pure imagination.

This vibrant production captures the spirit of the season, filled with magic, joy, and unforgettable memories. Experience The Nutcracker as you've never seen it before—where dreams, music, and dance come together in a holiday masterpiece.

Choreography: Jorden Morris
Score: Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky
