The University of Wyoming Department of Theatre and Dance presents “The Nutcracker” Dec. 11-14 in the Arts & Sciences Auditorium in Laramie. Performances are at 7:30 p.m. Thursday-Saturday and 2 p.m. on Sunday.

This classic ballet about a young girl who receives a nutcracker for Christmas that spurs her fantastical dream is a favorite family holiday tradition. Based on E.T.A. Hoffman’s book and featuring
Tchaikovsky’s dazzling score, THE NUTCRACKER brings out the child in each of us as it comes alive with dancing snowflakes, magical mice, marching soldiers, waltzing flowers, the Sugar Plum Fairy, and the
Nutcracker Prince. This year’s production features more costumes and sets inspired by frontier Laramie and the Ivinson Mansion. Whether you’re six or 60, THE NUTCRACKER is a must see! (Ages 2 and up.)

THE NUTCRACKER is supported in part by a grant from the Wyoming Arts Council, through funding from the Wyoming State Legislature and the National Endowment for the Arts.
