Experience the wonder of your first Nutcracker all over again. As the lights fade and Tchaikovsky’s enchanting melodies fill the Opera House, you’ll be whisked away to a fantastical realm where snowflakes dance, flowers waltz, and the Sugarplum Fairy conjures a child’s dream. Celebrate 20 years of Tomasson’s beloved holiday classic with us—it’s a festive journey you’ll never forget.
Who it’s For : Everyone! Families, ballet lovers, and anyone looking for a cheerful holiday experience in San Francisco. Classicists know and love Tchaikovsky’s iconic score. Children adore the magical growing Christmas tree, the onstage blizzard of waltzing snowflakes, and the dancing bear in Act II. History buffs appreciate the setting in the historic 1915 world’s fair set against a backdrop of San Francisco sights.
