Join us for another year of this Grunin Center holiday tradition. The Ballet for Young Audiences production of The Nutcracker tells the story of Clara, a young girl on the brink of womanhood whose dreams are both childlike and tinged with romance. She is the favorite godchild of Herr Drosselmeyer, a mysterious clockmaker who helps to transport Clara and her Nutcracker Prince to a special realm. Please note that it is the Grunin Center Policy for all Family Shows that all attendees, regardless of age, require a ticket.
