On the program
Piotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky: The Nutcracker
Halifax’s favourite holiday tradition for 35 years.
When a young girl’s toy comes to life, she’s whisked away to an enchanted world where she meets magical creatures, colourful friends, and the ferocious Mouse Queen. Complete with larger-than-life puppets, spirited dancing, and Tchaikovsky’s delightful, iconic score, this tale of magic and wonder is a delightful holiday adventure for all ages.
