Continental Ballet Company Presents: The Nutcracker

It is Christmas Even in Germany, and guests begin to arrive at the Silberhaus’ home for a holiday party. The children receive gifts — dolls for the girls and trumpets for the boys. Clara and Marie’s godfather Drosselmeyer arrives, bringing dancing dolls and a special nutcracker for Clara. On this adventure, Clara and her Nutcracker Prince are welcomed and entertained by many people. The fantasy and excitement must come to an end and, while her Nutcracker Prince has to leave, Clara is left with wonderful memories and her nutcracker doll. Tickets: $17-$39, available at www.sheldontheatre.org or by calling 651-388-8700.
