## About

The award-winning Children's Ballet of San Antonio brings Tchaikovsky's timeless holiday classic to life on the historic stage of the atmospheric Majestic Theatre. Featuring an elite, diverse cast of over 200 young performers ranging in age from 3 to 19—including dancers with special needs and international guest artists—this critically lauded production is specifically choreographed and paced with family audiences in mind.

Children will be mesmerized by the magical growing Christmas tree, the battle between the Nutcracker Prince and Mouse King, dancing snowflakes, and the Land of Sweets. The Majestic Theatre features booster seats for young children, grand historic holiday decorations in the lobby, and post-show cast meet-and-greets for photos.
