Ballet Pensacola once again invites you to imagine the magic this holiday season with its spectacular take on the cherished Christmas classic. Brimming with festive fantasy, and with stunning sets, glittering costumes, and choreography all set to Tchaikovsky's unforgettable score, The Nutcracker is the ultimate holiday treat for all the family!

What is the story?

One snowy Christmas Eve, at a great townhouse where a party is in full swing, local magician Herr Drosselmeyer arrives with gifts for the children, including a wooden nutcracker for Clara, the oldest child. When the clock strikes twelve, an adventure begins and the Nutcracker comes to life, leading our heroine Clara into a war between mice and tin soldiers, and into the enchanted Land of Sweets where a festival awaits them.
