The Nutcracker &
Visit to Santa's Toyland

Event Description 

A yearly holiday tradition returns to LPAC: The Nutcracker and Visit to Santa's Toyland! Students from the Joffrey Ballet School’s Children's & Youth Ballet program will perform the holiday favorite on the Mainstage of LaGuardia Performing Arts Center.

Set to what is regarded as Tchaikovsky's best ballet score, the story tells of the courage and love of a small girl, Clara, in breaking the wicked spell held over the Nutcracker Prince.

A Meet and Greet with the principal dancers of Joffrey Ballet School will take place directly after the performance.

After the show, join LPAC in our Little Theater and visit Santa's Toyland! This yearly tradition has become a family-favorite event where children can meet Santa and leave with a special gift from LPAC! No RSVP required, your Nutcracker ticket gets you in!
