Tips for seeing The Nutcracker
- Buy early: weekend matinees in December sell out first.
- Student and community productions are usually shorter and less expensive — great for young children.
- Many companies offer a sensory-friendly performance; ask the box office.
- The ballet runs about two hours with an intermission.
