BalletMet will perform a 22-performance run of Gerard Charles’ The Nutcracker at Ohio Theatre featuring BalletMet 2 dancers and BalletMet Academy trainees and students alongside the professional company. Tchaikovsky’s unmistakeable score serves as the driving force behind the story of Clara’s journey in a snow-filled forest and a land of sweets.

“The Nutcracker is the one production every dancer has been a part of, but what’s so special is that every company’s production is always unique. I can’t wait to experience my first BalletMet Nutcracker alongside my new Central Ohio community.”

– Remi Wörtmeyer, Artistic Director of BalletMet

Abridged versions of this holiday classic will be danced on December 20 and 26 at 11:00am. My First Nutcracker is designed with younger audiences in mind providing a one-hour show in a more casual atmosphere.
