The Nutcracker is returning to the Sacramento Ballet stage this December. Continuing its yearly tradition, the company will perform Tchaikovsky's work and fill you with holiday cheer. Also taking part in the show are local young aspiring ballet dancers, with some as young as seven years old. So come on down and support your local company and get in the Holiday spirit as you do!

The extremely talented dancers of Ukraine's Grand Kyiv Ballet are back on the stage in North America, performing Tchaikovsky's must-see holiday classic The Nutcracker! Originally written by E.T.A. Hoffmann, Tchaikovsky's masterpiece score to the world-famous ballet received its debut over 130 years ago, in 1892. A truly timeless work, an evening spent at a performance of this enchanting show is the perfect way to welcome in Christmas with the whole family!

It's the most wonderful time of the year, and what better way to celebrate than by taking your little ones to The Nutcracker Sweet at the Woodland Opera House! This special children's production shortens the American favorite, allowing you to introduce your children to the magic of The Nutcracker this Christmas time.
