* Special guest appearance by Houston Ballet Principal Dancer Connor Walsh as the Cavalier is scheduled for selected performances (Saturday evening, and both shows on Sunday).
Choreographed by Artistic Director Nancie Woods, and Caroline Frankil Warren to the beloved Tchaikovsky score, the CDC’s full length Nutcracker leads you through the story of Clara and her mysterious Uncle Drosselmayer, a magician who can stop time, and her encounters with giant mice, life-size dolls, faeries, beautiful snowflakes, and a lush Kingdom of the Sweets.
A sophisticated 1940’s Party scene sets the tone for the family-friendly 1 hour and 45 minute performance with one 15 minute intermission. Tickets are: Adult: $22 - $25 ($27 - $30 at the door); Student/Senior: $17 – 22 ($22 - $27 at the door). Groups of 10 or more receive a 10% discount.
