ORLANDO BALLET ENTERTAINS, EDUCATES, AND ENRICHES THROUGH THE HIGHEST QUALITY OF DANCE.
In honor of our 50th Anniversary, Orlando Ballet is thrilled to present the World Premiere of a ground-breaking production of The Nutcracker. This from-scratch, Broadway-caliber production will be the largest ever created by an Orlando-based performing arts organization, featuring enchanting new choreography, stunning costumes, fantastical sets, and magical stage elements.
Staying true to the traditional story of a young girl’s love for her favorite Christmas gift bestowed by the town’s toymaker, this exciting new production set to Tchaikovsky’s timeless score promises to form new and renewed holiday traditions for years to come.
Artistic Director, Jorden Morris, spent three years reimagining the production with a creative team of world-renowned designers, including Orlando Ballet’s Associate Artistic Director, Lisa Thorn-Vinzant, award-winning Costume and Set Designer, Robert Perdziola, and Lighting Designer Joseph Walls.
“The Nutcracker is universally beloved, so we all understood our responsibility to protect the story and [of course] the music. Having this special team of creative and enthusiastic experts share in revisioning all the tradition and charm of this classic in a new and innovative way is a choreographer’s dream,” said Morris. “We’ve created something very special for Central Florida.”
Don’t miss your chance to see Clara’s enchanting dreams come to life on stage as never before this December 8-24, 2023.
