Oregon Ballet Theatre Presents George Balanchine's The Nutcracker

The Nutcracker ballet is a traditional part of the Christmas season in cities and communities around the Northwest. That tradition has taken root in Portland with the Oregon Ballet Theatre's annual presentation of George Balanchine's choreography of The Nutcracker. 2009 presentations will take place from December 12 through 24. Some of these performances will be to recorded music, while several will be to full live orchestra. Tickets can be purchased online, at the OBT box office, or by calling 503-222-5538.
