Description
The Austin Ballet produces the longest-running production of The Nutcracker in Texas. Celebrating 55 years, I can’t think of a sweeter Christmas performance to take your children to.
Event Details
Your favorite way to celebrate the season returns for its 56th year! Ballet Austin’s annual production of The Nutcracker never disappoints, with hundreds of dancers, beautiful sets and costumes, and Tchaikovsky’s delicious score performed live by the Austin Symphony Orchestra.
