Nutcracker! Magical Christmas Ballet

Bring your family to experience this beloved holiday classic performed by an impressive international cast of professional dancers. This 33rd annual production from Talmi Entertainment features Vaganova-trained performers from Ukraine, Japan, Italy and beyond, alongside local young dancers from Premier Academy of Dance. Expect stunning visuals throughout—ornate costumes, hand-painted sets, towering puppets, and gravity-defying acrobatics from Cyr Wheel and Acro Ballet Artists. The show is accompanied by Tchaikovsky's iconic score and features innovative choreography including special performances like the Dove of Peace adagio and Arabian variations. This production showcases all the theatrical magic you'd want: Broadway-quality staging, meticulous attention to detail, and the artistry that's made this company famous for refinement and precision. The Murat Theatre offers comfortable seating across multiple levels with excellent sight lines. Tickets start at $64 per person, and given the show's popularity, availability may be limited. Doors open at 6:00 PM, giving families time to arrive early and settle in before the performance begins. Whether you're a longtime ballet fan or looking for a special holiday outing, this presentation delivers an enchanting evening for the whole family.
