November 25th – December 31st
Let the season begin with the most enchanting Nutcracker of all performed by the New York City Ballet!!! Tchaikovsky’s iconic score transports you to a world of wonder where mischievious mice are foiled by toy soldiers who came to life and a blizzard of ballerinas lead the way to the enchanting Land of Sweets. George Balanchine’s “The Nutcracker” has been a favorite of New Yorkers since 1954. All 90 dancers, 32 stagehands and two separate casts featuring 50 young students from The School of American Ballet join forces to make each performance magical.
