About This Show

American Repertory Ballet brings the beloved classic, The Nutcracker, to the stage with Tchaikovsky’s magnificent score, stunning new sets (new first act scenery!), thrilling choreography and a cast of more than 100.

A holiday tradition for more than 50 years, American Repertory Ballet’s The Nutcracker is one of the longest-running productions of its kind in the nation. Directed by Artistic Director Douglas Martin, American Repertory Ballet’s professional company will be joined by select students from Princeton Ballet School to tell the story of a young girl named Clara and how a mysterious gift from her Uncle Drosselmeyer brings about enchanted dreams and fantastical scenes.

Join us for the perfect holiday treat for your entire family!
