About

Choreographed by James Canfield, NBT’s The Nutcracker is a magical journey through a larger than life world filled with waltzing flowers, nimble fairies, and moonlit snow. Glittering holiday cheer abounds as Clara and her handsome Prince travel from the warmth of her family home to a land of toy soldiers, mischievous rodents and exotic visitors from faraway lands.

Before the performance, enjoy NBT’s fun, family-friendly bonus experience: The Nutcracker Wonderland. Located inside the Troesh Theatre space, adjacent to Reynolds Hall, this glittering holiday environment will be worthy of many family ’’selfies’’ as you wander through scene after scene of holiday joy. Highlighting The Nutcracker Wonderland experience is the arrival of a special guest to read the story of The Nutcracker to all of the children. The Nutcracker Wonderland is free to all ticket holders. Doors open 60 minutes prior to curtain at the Troesh Theatre, adjacent to Reynolds Hall, and you may come and go as you please.

Before settling into your seats for the magical journey ahead with Clara and her Nutcracker Prince, be sure to stop by The Nutcracker Boutique in the Reynolds Hall lobby. Our boutique is filled with delightfully festive Nutcracker-themed souvenirs, just-right keepsakes and last minute stocking stuffers for everyone on your shopping list.

Make your visit to The Nutcracker extra special with a souvenir Red Carpet Photo. Walk the red carpet with our Nutcracker mascot and have your photo taken by our professional photographers, delivered to you in a custom holiday sleeve. Purchase your Red Carpet Photo in advance with your tickets and save $6.
