The Nutcracker Ballet

Proudly presented by Cotton Rose School of Dance & The Averitt Center for the Arts, The Nutcracker!

This year sees the return of the most beloved Christmas classic to the Averitt Center stage.

Join Clara on her whirlwind adventure as she battles the evil mouse king alongside a familiar brave soldier, travels through the tantalizing Land of Sweets, sails across the Lemonade Sea, and is entertained by the most unlikely of hosts- the Sugarplum Fairy. Delighting the Statesboro community for over a decade, The Nutcracker has become one of the most anticipated events of the holiday season. This nostalgic tale will be brought to life in the Emma Kelly Theater by the instructors and students of the Cotton Rose School of Dance.
