The Nutcracker @ NBT



Las Vegas’ favorite holiday tradition!

Choreographed by James Canfield, NBT’s The Nutcracker fills the stage with glittering holiday cheer as Tchaikovsky’s beloved score fills the theater. Come along on a magical journey with Clara and her handsome Prince, from the warmth of her family home to a land of toy soldiers, mischievous rodents and exotic visitors from faraway lands. This magical tour through the wonder and sparkle of the season features a cast of nearly 100 dancers including NBT’s talented Company Artists and students from NBT’s affiliated Academy. With more performances than ever before it’s easy to find the perfect time to treat your family and friends to a larger than life world filled with waltzing flowers, nimble fairies, and moonlit snow. Simply put, it wouldn’t be the holidays without NBT’s production of The Nutcracker. THE NUTCRACKER WONDERLAND A fun, family-friendly bonus experience Before settling into your seat at The Nutcracker, you’ll want the entire family to enjoy NBT’s new bonus experience: The Nutcracker Wonderland. Located inside the Troesh Theatre space, adjacent to Reynolds Hall, this glittering holiday environment will be worthy of many family ’’selfies’’ as you wander through scene after scene of holiday joy. Highlighting The Nutcracker Wonderland experience is the arrival of a special guest to read the story of The Nutcracker to all of the children. Afterwards, everyone will venture onward to Reynolds Hall where they can refresh themselves, buy a souvenir or two at The Nutcracker Boutique and get settled into their seats for the magical journey ahead with Clara and her Nutcracker Prince.
