Greenville’s International Ballet presents this beloved classic on the Peace Center stage Dec. 8-10 — and brings plenty of holiday magic with it.

Principal guest dancers Ekaterina Nechayeva and Brooklyn Mack dazzle as Clara and her Nutcracker Prince as they journey to the Land of the Sweets, encountering a spirited battle between toy soldiers and the Mouse King, dancing snowflakes, and beautiful angels along the way.

Audiences can look forward to highlights including:

  • Tchaikovsky’s timeless score performed live by the Greenville Symphony Orchestra
  • A featured appearance by the Greenville Youth Chorale
  • Glittering costumes and exquisite sets (including falling snow)
