A story for all ages

The Nutcracker is the more than 100-year-old, dreamlike Christmas tale of a little girl named Clara who along with her new toy – turned prince -- Nutcracker battle a fierce Mouse King. Clara is then rewarded by being transported to the Land of Snow and the Land of Sweets. Her voyage is filled with spectacular adventure and beauty, and is exquisitely performed by the Grand Rapids Ballet.

JSO adds to the magic

The dramatic and powerful music of Tchaikovsky, performed by the Jackson Symphony Orchestra, brings the story alive with its familiar and well-loved sounds of the season.
