Nutcracker

Hey Jellisy · November 2011

I would really like to take DD to see a production of the Nutcracker this holiday season. She's 32 months, so I was hoping for either an abridged version or one geared towards younger children that takes place in the morning or afternoon. Does anyone know if any of the local schools or companies do this. I remember when I first went to see it at Lincoln Center in NYC and it was completely magical. I was in first grade, so older than DD and better able to sit through a full show. DD loves watching dancers on TV and I know she will fall in love with them on stage as well.

I didn't read the entire description of each, but kidfriendlydc had a great listing on this blog entry: https://kidfriendlydc.com/2011/11/07/holiday-entertainment-2011/

ETA: The ones at the bottom seem to have some abridged versions: Mini-nut and Christmas Dreams from the Nutcracker.
