Nutcracker

About

Our most magical production returns to the Opera House stage, transporting audiences of all ages into a realm of the fantastical. Dubbed Helgi Tomasson’s “finest achievement” by the San Francisco Chronicle, our Nutcracker remains the cornerstone of the Bay Area’s holiday season. Tchaikovsky’s iconic score, played by the Grammy Award-winning Orchestra, guides us along Clara’s magical journey from her Victorian-era San Francisco home, through the most dazzling onstage blizzard, and onto the stunning Crystal Palace, where we meet the Sugar Plum Fairy and an international cast of characters.
