Ron Cunningham's matchless version of The Nutcracker abounds with good cheer and fabulous entertainment. Big, bold, and festive, be swept away by the wondrous spectacle of Clara's magical dream of the Sugar Plum Fairy's Kingdom of the Sweets. Adorable tiny mice and tasty gingerbread cookies vie for your attention amidst a swirl of delicious dance.

This majestic tale has filled the Sacramento holiday season with beauty and joy for decades. This year during the pandemic, Sacramento Ballet is not able to perform in person, but are offering three different years of The Nutcracker for your viewing pleasure.
