Westside Ballet's annual, lavish production of Tchaikovsky's The Nutcracker, is the longest-running Nutcracker production in SoCal, and this year it celebrates 50 years! Westside alumni join select performances including Tiler Peck, Mate Szentes, Roman Mejia, and Lucia Connolly. 

The Westside production features over 85 dancers, 225 costumes, and four lavishly designed scenes that have been updated over the years with new backdrops and accouterments, but still retains the most beloved traditional characters and iconic moments - including the tree that grows, a firing cannon, and falling snow over a stunning corps de ballet. 

Performances are at 1pm and 5pm on Saturdays and Sundays.
