Toddler-Friendly “The Nutcracker”
Based on a novel by 19th-century romantic fabulist E.T.A. Hoffman, The Nutcracker weaves a magical tale of holiday adventure around one of the most recognizable scores in the ballet repertoire. It begins when young Clara receives a nutcracker from her godfather, a wizardly toymaker named Drosselmeyer. Sneaking downstairs to see the toy after everyone else has gone to bed, she suddenly finds herself caught in the middle of a pitched battle between the toys and an army of mice.
Designed with families in mind, this 60-minute adaptation tells the well-known story in a child-friendly format. Children under the age of four are welcome to attend this daytime performance with their parents, offering a family-friendly option that both parents and toddlers can enjoy.
