Houston’s holiday tradition continues with the magic and wonder of Stanton Welch’s The Nutcracker.
Following the annual Stahlbaum Christmas party, journey through the glittering Land of Snow to the bright and joyful Kingdom of Sweets with Clara, Drosselmeyer, and the Prince as he reunites with the Sugar Plum Fairy amongst the clouds, where the real magic happens. One of the most splendid ever staged, Welch’s The Nutcracker features hundreds of characters, elaborate sets, and stunning details that will captivate audiences and leave you finding something new with every performance.
