Eugene Ballet's Enchanting Production of The Nutcracker
This December marks a new chapter for Eugene Ballet's cherished production of The Nutcracker, now under the leadership of Artistic Director Jennifer Martin and Associate Artistic Director Suzanne Haag. The beloved choreography of founder Toni Pimble remains integral to this year's performance, with only minor adjustments made by her. A notable addition is the Nutcracker Short & Suite, a sensory-friendly performance scheduled for December 23.
Pimble continues to contribute by designing new costumes for key characters, enhancing the visual experience for dancers and audiences alike. Each year, the casting brings a fresh dynamic to the classic tale, with social media announcements allowing fans to follow their favorite performers.
The Nutcracker tells the enchanting story of Clara and her magical journey with the Nutcracker Prince, set to Tchaikovsky's timeless score performed live by Orchestra Next. Additionally, Eugene Ballet will collaborate with local talent in Anchorage, Alaska, continuing a tradition that enriches both communities.
Tickets for the full performance start at $30, with family-friendly options available for the December 23 show at $18. All performances take place at the Silva Concert Hall in the Hult Center for the Performing Arts.
