Sunday, December 27, 2026 · 12 PM
Where
Mahaffey Theater 400 1st Street S, St Petersburg, FL

The Mahaffey Theater stages a massive, international touring production of NUTCRACKER! Magical Christmas Ballet. Billed as the largest presentation of the Tchaikovsky classic in North America, this interpretation goes beyond traditional classical dance by incorporating gravity-defying acrobatic sequences and towering puppetry into the narrative. An international cast of ballet dancers executes the complex choreography amidst lavish scenic designs and highly detailed costumes, transforming the familiar tale of Clara and her wooden prince into a large-scale theatrical spectacle.
