The Nutcracker: 2pm on Sunday, November 22, 2026

Ballet For Youth presents The Nutcracker: 2pm on Saturday, November 22, 2025

Join us for a magical afternoon at the Spokane Community College Lair Auditorium as we bring to life the classic tale of The Nutcracker.

You are invited to the Stahlbaum's Christmas party to watch Clara and her friends delight in a magical Christmas evening. Clara's quirky uncle brings the children presents and she receives a beloved Nutcracker doll.

When Clara falls asleep, she dreams of various lands. She is tormented by mice, dazzled with a beautiful snowstorm, mesmerized with the Snow Queen, and enchanted as she watches the Sugar Plum fairy dance a beautiful Pas de Deux with her Cavalier.

Come support your favorite student dancers, "ooh" and "aah" at the beautiful costumes and share this holiday classic with your loved ones.

Special guest artists performing the Sugar Plum Pas de Deux.

This performance is a fundraising event for Ballet for Youth, a local non-profit dedicated to providing performance opportunites for Spokane youth.

Please note: performances are all at Spokane Community College's Lair Auditorium, which is building #6. Park in lot P1 and enter on Mission Street.

We are excited to share this performance with friends, family and the Spokane Community.
