About The Nutcracker

“The Nutcracker” follows a young girl, Clara, through her adventures on Christmas Eve during a party visited by her mysterious Uncle Drosselmeyer. Life size dolls and toy soldiers create an evening that grows even more fantastical as she falls asleep and witnesses toy soldiers battling mice and rats. A journey through the Land of Snow leads her to a world led by the Sugar Plum Fairy, and filled with dancing candies and sweets performing for her and her soldier prince.

COVID-19 Precautions

For everyone’s safety, this event will comply with Larimer County’s current event guidelines. All attendees will be required to wear a facial covering and remain socially distanced (6 feet apart) from other parties. Purchasers will be limited to 8 tickets within a single order, and vacant seats will be automatically added around seat reservations to create the appropriate 6 feet distance between purchasing parties. Please stay home if you are feeling symptomatic or have had known exposure to COVID-19. If you are unable to attend, please call the Lincoln Center Box Office at least 24 hours in advance of the performance.

Livestreams

The livestream performances will air live at the time the show begins, and cannot be paused or replayed. If you purchase tickets to the livestream, you may watch this event on any device that can access the internet, including laptop and desktop computers, iPhones, iPads, other SmartDevices, and SmartTVs. Purchasers will receive more information about how to watch and access the livestream upon purchase of a livestream ticket.
