George Balanchine's The Nutcracker

Dorothy Chandler Pavilion
135 N. Grand Avenue Los Angeles

Watch a young girl's dreams leap to life on stage as The Music Center welcomes the Miami City Ballet to perform the world premiere of George Balanchine's The Nutcracker. This holiday classic features Balanchine's traditional choreography, live orchestra playing Tchaikovsky's timeless score, and all-new sets and costumes by Cuban-American artist-designer power couple Isabel and Ruben Toledo. In keeping with The Music Center's mission of forming alliances with L.A.-based artists, performances will include student dancers from two L.A. arts academies -- Colburn School and Gabriella Foundation's everybody dance! -- while the Los Angeles Children's Chorus will provide live vocals. Bring the whole family for this winter delight at Dorothy Chandler Pavilion.
