Why has The Nutcracker lovingly endured with audiences around the world for over 100 years? It's simple. The Nutcracker embodies everything we love about the holidays:  family togetherness, that magical feeling a winter snowfall invokes, the laughter that toys coming to life would bring forth, and the idea that dreams can come true . . . Especially at Christmas time.

The beautiful Carolina Theatre, located in Greensboro's thriving holiday downtown area, will come alive for two weekends in December as Greensboro Ballet presents its annual production of The Nutcracker.  Audiences will join Clara and her Nutcracker Prince on their magical journey to the Kingdom of the Sweets as she meets giant mice, twirling snowflakes, leaping Russians, the sparkling Sugar Plum Fairy and many other magical friends.
