Treat Your Family to Peninsula Ballet Theatre's 43rd Nutcracker

December 21st - 2:00 and 7:00 pm
December 22nd – 2:00 pm

With so many Nutcracker performances to choose from, PBT stands out from the rest because we listen. Many of you reported that you missed our classic Nutcracker choreographed by Carlos Carvajal with its spectacular finale and Mother Goose scene, so we are bringing it back.  For 43 years Peninsula Ballet Theatre has delighted and entertained Bay Area families with Nutcracker performances.

This holiday season prepare to be transported on a magical journey with Clara and the Nutcracker Prince.  After the heroic battle against the Mouse King, travel through the Land of the Snowflakes and on to the Kingdom of the Sweets. There you will meet the Sugar Plum Fairy and be entertained by the wonders of the Land of Enchantment.  

PBT’s Nutcracker is everyone’s favorite family-friendly ballet.  You can meet the dancers following the sparkling finale as audience members are invited on-stage. You will applaud every breathtaking moment as you enjoy the magic that only Nutcracker brings.
