Boston Ballet's "The Nutcracker" (Boston Opera House)

 "Elegant and theatrically striking" -- The New York Times

Boston Ballet's production of Mikko Nissinen's "The Nutcracker" received rave reviews during its premiere in 2012. This sparkling production, with sets and costumes by Robert Perdziola, "brings a softness and light to the venerable holiday classic" (The Boston Globe).

Remember the magic! The timeless story of Clara, who bravely saves her Nutcracker Prince and is swept away on a magical journey through the Nutcracker Prince's kingdom in the clouds, is an engaging tale for the whole family and a holiday tradition for many years to come.  

Get your tickets early - many performances sold out last season  - don't miss your chance to see the production that brought audiences to their feet!
