Nashville’s Nutcracker

One of Nashville’s newest holiday traditions, Nashville’s Nutcracker, will return with new surprises to accompany its beloved characters and story set in 1897 Nashville at the Centennial Exposition.

Young Clara meets an exotic cast of characters from far-away lands after receiving a special gift from her magical Uncle Drosselmeyer.

Featuring The Nashville Symphony Orchestra performing familiar music by Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky, Nashville’s Nutcracker will be danced by Nashville Ballet company members, second company and 150 young dancers from dance schools throughout the community.
