Founded in 1959, Shumka Dance Theater has produced countless groundbreaking productions that showcase the best of the genre.

This Christmas season, Shumka brings back The Nutcracker! The original traditional ballet production features the fantastic work of legendary composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky.

But this time, since Shumka is putting their own dance technique to light, they will be presenting a lovely rendition of the Christmas epic. But surely, audiences will still witness the amazing story of a girl named Clara who takes a liking to the Nutcracker soldier.

The Nutcracker turns into a Handsome Prince, and he brings Clara to the Land of the Sweets.
