The Nutcracker
A dream comes to life in this delightful holiday fantasy. Young Clara receives a beautiful wooden Nutcracker as a Christmas gift from her mysterious uncle, Herr Drosselmeyer. After her family’s party, Clara falls asleep and then awakens to find the Nutcracker and his soldiers alive and in furious battle with the Mouse King. The injured Nutcracker transforms into the handsome Nutcracker Prince and leads Clara to the magical Kingdom of the Sweets where she is introduced to the Sugar Plum Fairy and her Cavalier. Dancing Snowflakes, Angels, Spanish Chocolate, Gingerbread, Chinese Tea, Russian Peppermint, Arabian Coffee, German Marzipan and Bonbons perform, concluding with the Waltz of the Flowers. This colorful production, set to the wondrous Tchaikovsky score, will be sure to get you in the spirit of the season and leave you asking, “Was it just a dream?”.
