The Nutcracker
About the Show
Ballet and Nutcracker fans are in for a treat Thanksgiving week with the Kennedy Center debut of Atlanta Ballet and its extraordinary new production. Washington audiences will be the first to see it outside of Atlanta — a truly spectacular staging set against a fantastical starry night, dominated by oversize storybooks, clocks, and constellations.
Danced to Tchaikovsky’s timeless score performed by the Kennedy Center Opera House Orchestra, the production features bold sets and costumes and fresh choreography by acclaimed San Francisco Ballet and Bolshoi Ballet choreographer Yuri Possokhov.
