The Nutcracker

Macky Auditorium Concert Hall
1595 Pleasant St. Boulder

New sets, exciting choreography and a full, live orchestra fill the grandness of Macky Auditorium for Boulder Ballet and the Boulder Philharmonic's production of this famed holiday favorite. Set to Tchaikovsky's timeless score, this glittering tale follows young Clara, who receives the gift of a nutcracker at a festive family Christmas party. That night she dreams of a grand adventure that begins with a handsome prince, continues with an epic battle between mice and toys, and comes to a climax with a magical journey to the Land of Sweets to meet the Sugar Plum Fairy.
