This perennial Holiday favorite story ballet focuses on the young girl Clara, who is presented with a nutcracker by her strange and beloved Uncle Drosselmeier at the family’s Christmas Eve Party.

In her dreams that night the Mouse King, danced by Rodney Hamilton, appears and a battle ensues between his army of mice and The Nutcracker, danced by Jeff Hover, and his soldiers.
