A remarkably resilient blend of complex classical ballet, popular imagery, and holiday nostalgia, The Nutcracker has taken on a life of its own since it first appeared one cold Russian winter over 100 years ago. Experience  Tchaikovsky’s complete ballet presented by Dancers Studio with full orchestral accompaniment by the Columbus Indiana Philharmonic orchestra. Through Clara’s eyes, the audience will be awestruck by the gorgeous set, costumes, orchestra, and artistry of Dancers Studio dancers giving life to young Clara’s enchanting dream with her prized Nutcracker.

CICC singers will perform the iconic snow scene with the Columbus Indiana Philharmonic.
