The Nutcracker Returns to Moscow!

Make the holiday season magical with Ballet Victoria, visiting from Victoria, British Columbia, Canada, as they bring their enchanting production of The Nutcracker to the Hartung Theatre at the University of Idaho this December.

Experience the timeless story of Clara, the Nutcracker Prince, the Mouse King, and the magical journey to the Kingdom of Sweets—brought to life by the artistry and professionalism of Ballet Victoria.

This special Moscow performance also features dancers from Festival Dance Academy, giving our talented young local dancers the extraordinary opportunity to share the stage with professional ballet artists from Canada. It’s a wonderful chance for Festival Dance families, friends, and supporters to see our Academy dancers perform as part of this beloved holiday tradition.
