THE NUTCRACKER STORY

Imagine your way back to Christmas Eve, 1850. Guests are arriving for a party at the Stahlbaum home where Clara and Fritz join their parents to enjoy the Christmas tree and its treasures. One mysterious guest, Herr Drosselmeyer, delights guests young and old with his wonderful gifts and magical surprises. But children will be children and what won’t they quarrel about!

Later that evening, after all the guests have left and Clara is the only one left in the parlor, little mice begin scurrying by and the Nutcracker comes to life! He summons toy soldiers to overcome the evil Mouse Queen and her mischievous mice, and a great and wonderful battle ensues.

Victorious, the Nutcracker transforms into a gallant prince and whisks Clara away into the land of snow where she meets the snow queen and begins a delicious, entertaining journey through the Land of Sweets.

How does it end? Well you’ll just have to come and see. Set to Tchaikovsky’s timeless score, this full-length production of the magical holiday ballet features more than 50 local dancers ages 4-18
