Houston Ballet - The Nutcracker is a holiday ballet tradition brought to the Brown Theater in Houston. Stanton Welch's delightful production of the classic follows Clara on her unforgettable journey to the Land of Snow and the Kingdom of Sweets, where the Sugar Plum Fairy and the Nutcracker Prince dance a final pas de deux full of grace and romance. It's a true holiday ballet for the whole family and a perfect way to introduce young children to the power and beauty of classical dance.
