Thank You for a Wonderful 2025 Season.
As we reflect on 2025, we are incredibly grateful for the support that made this year so special. Our Nutcracker performances sold out, filling the theater with celebration and community—an unforgettable reminder of the power of live performance.
Looking ahead, we are thrilled to prepare for the 30th production of The Nutcracker in 2026, with exciting plans to expand and grow this cherished tradition for the next generation of performers and audiences.
