Show Description
This holiday favourite returns to the YMCA in 2022! Nutcracker in a Nutshell takes children through the classic ballet The Nutcracker in just 30 minutes. Set to Tchaikovsky’s beloved score, The Nutcracker Prince, Rat King, Snow Queen, Sugar Plum and all her friends make an appearance in this fun, condensed version of this holiday favourite. Join us for holiday craft-making 30 minutes before the show. Afterwards, there will be a Waltz of the Flowers’ interactive character dance and creativity workshop.
