Richmond Ballet - The Nutcracker

Richmond Ballet presents The Nutcracker, their annual holiday production. This version of the classic ballet features live accompaniment from the Richmond Symphony and choreography by Stoner Winslett. It's a traditional take on the story, often a first introduction to ballet for many. This matinee performance is on Sunday, December 20, 2026, at the Carpenter Theatre in Richmond, VA. The theater is a grand space, suitable for large-scale ballet productions. It's a good option for families or anyone looking for a festive, classical dance experience.
