Connecticut Ballet - The Nutcracker

Connecticut Ballet presents their annual production of The Nutcracker. This established company brings a classical interpretation to Tchaikovsky's score, featuring traditional choreography and staging. It's a familiar holiday tradition for many, often a first introduction to live ballet for younger audiences. This performance takes place on Sunday, December 13, 2026, at the Palace Theatre in Stamford, CT. The venue's proscenium stage is well-suited for ballet, offering clear sightlines. This show generally appeals to families and anyone looking for a seasonal escape into classical dance.
