World Ballet Company - The Nutcracker with a Live Orchestra

The World Ballet Company brings their rendition of The Nutcracker to Syracuse. This performance features a live orchestra, which adds a distinct layer of depth to Tchaikovsky's score, setting it apart from productions using recorded music. It’s a traditional take on the classic, focusing on the established choreography and narrative without modern reinterpretations. This Nutcracker performance is on Sunday, December 27, 2026, at the Mulroy Civic Center At Oncenter - Crouse Hinds Theatre. The Crouse Hinds Theatre is a proscenium stage known for its clear sightlines and acoustics, suitable for a full-scale ballet with orchestral accompaniment. This event will appeal to those who appreciate classical ballet and the full theatrical experience of a live orchestra.
