The production uses full backdrops, a growing Christmas tree, professionally built sets and props and handcrafted costumes, and the company describes it as family-friendly and about two hours long. Seeing local young dancers, aged 8 to 18, perform the snowflakes and the Nutcracker prince can be especially inspiring for children who take dance. Venue policy requires a ticket for every person, including infants on laps. ## Similar picks in Denver - [The Nutcracker — Parker Arts and Denver Ballet Theatre](https://grassyknees.com/denver/activities/the-nutcracker-parker-arts-and-denver-ballet-theatre--listing-3117a6bd1fa67293c0627255) — Thu, Dec 10 (+5 more dates) · 7:00 PM · PACE Center, Parker · All ages · Paid · checked Oct 16.
