THE NUTCRACKER IN JULY!

Welcome (and welcome back)!

Returning due to popularity, The Nutcracker in July is a production for adult ballet dancers (16+), across all local studios, regardless of their level or background.

The Nutcracker In July was established in 2024 to begin an annual tradition for years to come. The three sold-out ballet performances proved to be a huge success with our fellow Canberrans: 

  • Young children were exposed to ballet (some for the first time!) with an accessible show, shortened from the full-length ballet. Kid’s activities during the interval helped to foster a love of the performing arts - like when many little ones met the principal dancers!

  • Lovers of ballet and theatre had a local opportunity to attend a professional-quality production and view Canberra’s incredible local talent!

  • Local businesses had an opportunity to connect a new audience with their services as well as supporting local dancers through sponsorship.


At its core, this was a community event offering local ballet dancers a local opportunity to perform in a professional-quality narrative ballet and we are so happy to offer it again in 2025!
