The Nutcracker

A magical holiday tradition for more than 40 years, “The Nutcracker” ballet will again bring sugar plum dreams to life in dance and music.

“The Nutcracker” was presented by the North Carolina School of the Arts and the Winston-Salem Symphony at The Stevens Center, 405 West Fourth St., downtown Winston-Salem.

This production by NCSA and the Winston-Salem Symphony is one of the oldest continuous productions of this beloved holiday ballet in the country. A classic for the whole family, “The Nutcracker” tells the story of what happens to a little girl named Clara one Christmas Eve, when she receives a gift of a Nutcracker soldier doll, and dreams of a battle between toy soldiers and mice as large as life, and a journey to a magical kingdom where candy and flowers come alive.

The ballet, choreographed by Sonja Tyven and Robert Lindgren, was created after the original 19th century choreography of Lev Ivanov.

Robert Moody will lead the Winston-Salem Symphony in the staple of the holiday season, Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky’s unforgettable musical score.

“The Nutcracker” features advanced ballet students from NCSA’s School of Dance.

Set in 1840s Russia, “The Nutcracker” features beautiful sets and elegant costumes designed by NCSA alumnus Campbell Baird and constructed by students in the School of Design and Production, which is providing production support.

Thank you Walter for the tickets. Our family really enjoyed the special night out.
