## About

The Community Nutcracker publishes three public performances of its Nutcracker at the Florida Theatre: Friday, December 11, 2026, at 7:30 p.m.; Saturday, December 12, 2026, at 1:00 p.m.; and Saturday, December 12, 2026, at 7:30 p.m. Ticket sales are stated to open September 11, 2026, which is already past as of this research date, and each public show has its own Florida Theatre ticket link. The box office phone for those tickets is (904) 355-2787. No ticket price is printed. The company describes the public show as Clara and the nutcracker on a Christmas adventure and says it has presented the ballet since 1992. School-day performances on December 10 and 11 at 10:30 a.m., and the George Trotter Community Service Night on December 10 at 7:00 p.m. for nonprofit organizations and invited families, are not included in this public listing. The venue line on the organizer page is 128 East Forsyth Street, Jacksonville, FL 32202, without a suite number. This production is not the symphony's First Coast Nutcracker at Moran Theater on December 18 and not the December 31 Magical Christmas Ballet.
