THE NUTCRACKER CELEBRATES ITS 50TH ANNIVERSARY SEASON!
This December, Berks Ballet Theatre proudly celebrates 50 years of holiday magic with its landmark production of The Nutcracker. Join us on December 20 and 21 at Schaeffer Auditorium in Kutztown, PA, for a golden anniversary performance of the region’s most beloved holiday tradition.
For five decades, audiences have been swept away by Clara’s enchanting journey—where a cherished Nutcracker comes to life and whisks her into a world of sparkling snow, delectable sweets, and the timeless beauty of Tchaikovsky’s iconic score.
This milestone season shines brighter than ever, featuring the artistry of Berks Ballet Theatre’s company dancers, special guest performers, and the magnificent live accompaniment of the Reading Pops Orchestra.
Celebrate this unforgettable anniversary with family and friends, and be part of a tradition that has inspired generations. Experience The Nutcracker—a holiday treasure 50 years in the making.
