Christmas is The Nutcracker! This lavish production is steeped in glorious Pittsburgh history. It’s Christmas Eve at the Stahlbaum family home where guests include Mr. and Mrs. Kaufmann, Mr. and Mrs. Heinz and Mr. and Mrs. Grandview. Plus, you’ll be surprised at the many celebrity special guests who might join the party!

This stunning interpretation of the timeless classic takes audiences on an unforgettable journey that follows Marie and her Nutcracker Prince as they battle the dreaded Rat King and glide through a glittering snowy forest where they encounter the handsome Snow King with his beautiful Queen and the Snowflakes.

They arrive at the colorful Land of Enchantment carousel where the festival includes dancers from many exotic lands including Spanish, Russian, Chinese and Arabian.

With beautiful sets and ornate costumes, there is no greater gift for the entire family during the holiday season than this magical memory.
