Boston Ballet presents The Nutcracker

Finally! Live performances are back. It was really cool to see the Boston Ballet’s performance of The Nutcracker broadcast on NBC last November but it isn’t the same as sitting in the Boston Opera House, and I’m thrilled to see that the Boston Ballet will be back this season with live performances of this holiday classic.

The Boston Ballet’s production of The Nutcracker opens in a little more than two weeks, and tickets are on sale. Each year I like to give this classic ballet a plug, but after the past 18+ months I feel like grabbing a bullhorn and shouting it out from atop the Newbury’s rooftop restaurant, Contessa, for everyone to pay note.

Show your love and support for this wonderful ballet company. Make plans to see this year’s production of The Nutcracker. It is certain to be an emotional return after all the performances that were cut short in March 2020.

Boston Ballet presents The Nutcracker Nov. 26 – Dec. 26, 2021

Consider picking up tickets for a show this holiday season with friends or someone special. It makes for an excellent date night and is guaranteed to put you in the holiday spirit. Tickets are affordable, starting at $40.
