Kick off the holiday season with the timeless classic for the whole family. Join us as we tell the enchanting story of Clara, Toy Soldiers, the Mouse Queen, and the Sugar Plum Fairy. Accompanied by the Youngstown Symphony Orchestra and the famous Tchaikovsky score, Ballet Western Reserve’s talented cast of dancers take you through a magical journey as Clara’s Nutcracker doll comes to life on Christmas Eve and wages a battle against the evil Mouse Queen. The story continues through the snowy pine forest, a greeting from the beautiful Sugar Plum Fairy, and a culmination of dancing in the Land of the Sweets. Don’t miss out on the magic!
