THE NUTCRACKER

Step into a world of wonder as Tulsa’s most cherished holiday tradition returns to the stage! Since its dazzling 2021 premiere, Tulsa Ballet’s The Nutcracker has captivated audiences with its heart, magic, and sheer spectacle.

On a snowy Christmas Eve in 19th-century Germany, young Marie’s ordinary night transforms into an extraordinary adventure. A mysterious gift, a daring battle between the Nutcracker Prince and the wicked Mouse King, and a journey through sparkling kingdoms lead her to the enchanting realm of the Sugarplum Fairy.

Choreographed by Val Caniparoli and Ma Cong, this production seamlessly blends timeless elegance with Tulsa’s own flair, including a whimsical nod to the city’s beloved Golden Driller. The stage comes alive with breathtaking sets and costumes designed by Tracy Grant Lord, and every note is brought to life by the lush sound of the Tulsa Symphony Orchestra.

Overflowing with color, magic, and holiday spirit, The Nutcracker is more than a ballet, it’s a tradition your family will treasure for years to come.
