CEFCU proudly presents the Springfield Ballet Company's 35th annual production of The Nutcracker.

Set to Tchaikovsky’s enchanting score, this timeless holiday classic follows Clara and her Prince from a lavish Christmas party to a fierce battle with the evil Mouse King to a magical journey through the Land of Snow and the Kingdom of Sweets. The production features a cast of 120, including local children and adults, company dancers and professional guest artists.

The SBC's 2009 production of The Nutcracker celebrates its 35th anniversary.

The Springfield Ballet Company was founded in 1975 as a merger between Copper Coin Ballet and Ballet Concert Group. Grace Luttrell Nanavati and Dorothy Irvine were co-directors of the SBC when it staged it's first production of The Nutcracker; and Julie Ratz, SBC Artistic Director, performed as a soldier in the 1975 production.
