A joyous family holiday tradition for decades, Tchaikovsky’s The Nutcracker chronicles the story of Clara, a young girl swept away to a magical land of adventure. Clara’s family Christmas party features stately dances and lifelike mechanical dolls made by Clara’s mysterious Uncle Drosselmeyer. Drosselmeyer’s magic ushers in an army of mice at the stroke of midnight, as the Christmas tree grows and Clara’s beloved Nutcracker springs to life. The second act sweeps Clara away to the magical Land of Sweets, where she enjoys performances from the regal Sugar Plum Fairy and her subjects. The joy, beauty and adventure of The Nutcracker has something for the whole family to enjoy. Join the Flint Symphony Orchestra, Flint School of Performing Arts ballet students, and professional guest dancers in celebrating this beloved holiday tradition.
