The Crooked Tree Arts Center School of Ballet presents The Nutcracker at Great Lakes Center for the Arts on December 10th & 11th, 2022. With original choreography, awe-inspiring sets and costumes, and Tchaikovsky’s beloved score, “The Nutcracker” has become one of Northern Michigan’s favorite holiday traditions.

When Clara receives a nutcracker on Christmas Eve, her dreams take her on a grand adventure. Follow Clara to the wondrous Land of Sweets, where a fantastic cast of characters awaits. Meet the Snow Queen, Sugar Plum Fairy, Cavalier, mischievous mice, brave toy soldiers, and of course—the Nutcracker.

It’s a spectacular holiday treat for the entire family!
