Nutcracker

Deemed “As close to perfect as you can get,” Columbia City Ballet’s Nutcracker, directed by William Starrett, returns just in time for the holiday season. This award-winning show waltzes onto the Koger Center stage for six dazzling performances. This year, timeless choreography will be combined with a bigger and better performance. The company’s 31 professional dancers will share the stage with over 200 talented children, actors and extras, ages 4 to 48 and can be compared to a dazzling Broadway show. The Nutcracker conveys the magical story of dancing toys, mischievous mice and frolicking snowflakes dancing to Tchaikovsky’s memorable score. This spectacle is South Carolina’s longest running, largest single performing arts event with performances reaching over nine cities through November and December!
