The State Theatre
805 Hennepin Ave., Minneapolis, MN 55403
Once again, imaginative minds everywhere are flocking to the
19th century town of Nuremberg. Where snowflakes fall gently
onto gingerbread houses and cobblestone streets, awash in
the glow of streetlamps. Where childhood anticipation fills
the air. And where a gift from a certain wizardly godfather
creates a magical fantasy in the eyes of a little girl.
 As
toys come to life, and party guests are transformed into extraordinary
characters, Marie begins her journey to the Land of Sweets
with her Nutcracker Prince.
Come be enthralled by the Sugarplum Fairy,
delight in the drama of the wicked Rat Queen, and let the
hilarious Madame Bonbonniere enchant you, just as this cast
of characters enchants young Marie.
Choreographed by Minnesota Dance Theatre’s
founder Loyce Houlton and featuring a 42-piece symphony orchestra
conducted by Philip Brunelle, this time honored classic holds
the distinction of being the longest running arts event in
Minnesota history!
