This holiday season, New Ballet's The San Jose Nutcracker, choreographed by Dalia Rawson, and presented in conjunction with Symphony San Jose returns to the California Theatre.

New elements in the 2025 production include spectacular chandeliers featured in the party scene, created by local scenic artists and designed to represent the historic art deco chandeliers that hang in the auditorium of San Jose's beautiful California Theatre.

As in years past, the cast includes: New Ballet's professional dancers, students from New Ballet's American Ballet Theatre Certified training program and dancers from Los Lupenos Juvenil. All performances will be conducted by New Ballet's Conductor Thomas Shoebotham.

Also presented this holiday season is My Very First Nutcracker, a one-act performance for younger audiences, accompanied by Symphony San Jose.

My Very First Nutcracker takes place Dec 14, 21 and 22 at 11 am.

Pre-concert festivities for My Very First Nutcracker feature a special play zone that includes two brick pits, one with DUPLO brick and one with Soft Brick provided by Legoland.
