Nutcracker on Tour
Performed by one of the most historic dance companies in North America, BC’s only professional version of the wintertime classic is danced to a majestic and instantly recognizable Tchaikovsky score. Follow the adventures of Clara, her Nutcracker Prince, the Sugar Plum Fairy and more whimsical characters as they discover the magic of a distinctly Canadian holiday season. A timeless tradition for all ages.
Surrey and Vancouver dates presented by Ballet BC, Victoria by Dance Victoria, and Nanaimo by Port Theatre Nanaimo.
