The Romanian Nutcracker: A Night of Awakened Tradition

Our winter secret is finally revealed! After months of rehearsals, costume fittings, folklore deep-dives and the occasional "are we sure this is possible?", we are finally ready to invite you to our reimagined Nutcracker. Our singers and dancers, from the tiniest to the tallest, have poured heart, energy and joy into weaving this unique story.

Step with us on this re-envisioned journey, where mystical carols intertwine with lively folk dance rhythms and where Tchaikovski's timeless score adds its unmistakeable magic… Where calusarii battle the forces of darkness, the Socacite enchant us with delicious Romanian treats and the New Year's Eve Totems usher in a stronger, brighter, happier year. Where flowers dare to bloom again after a long, cold winter and where the beloved Nutcracker wears traditional Romanian attire.

Tickets are officially available!

Join us for this premiere performance: Saturday, December 20th, 5:00pm-7:30pm, at the Redmond Performing Arts Center
