Salish Sea Youth Ballet is proud to present the 2018 Friday Harbor Nutcracker. San Juan Island dancers will perform excerpts from the classic Nutcracker ballet in an intimate tea party setting at Brickworks. This interactive, family friendly event immerses audiences into the magical story and is sure to become a family tradition. Our 2018 production features new, original ballet choreography that celebrates San Juan Island and its local culture while remaining true to The Nutcracker’s classical ballet roots.

The 45 minute youth ballet performance will be followed by holiday tea and sweets, a pop up Nutcracker gift boutique, and opportunities to meet the Nutcracker characters in costume.

Performances take place at Brickworks (150 Nichols St, Friday Harbor) on Saturday, December 15 at 7 p.m. and Sunday, December 16 at 2 p.m. Tickets are $30 for adults and $25 for children 9 & under, including tea and sweets.
