Atlanta Ballet Presents The Nutcracker

From the venue:

Tchaikovsky’s instantly familiar music will usher in the city’s iconic holiday performances as the Atlanta Ballet presents its signature production of The Nutcracker December 6-27, 2025, under the artistic direction of Gennadi Nedvigin. As one of the most anticipated performances in its repertoire, the company will deliver the Christmas season tradition for 20 mainstage performances. Award-winning choreographer Yuri Possokhov reimagined the classical ballet seven years ago exclusively for Atlanta Ballet with intricately designed costumes, larger-than-life sets, advanced lighting and state-of-the-art video projections. As the grandest production of The Nutcracker ballet in the Southeast, the Atlanta Ballet Orchestra will perform the Tchaikovsky score, bringing the beautiful and intricate dance work to life. Atlanta Ballet’s production of The Nutcracker has been lauded as one of the most technically advanced versions of the holiday classic, transporting audiences to a charming yuletide German city for its whimsical story involving an unexpected gift, a mysterious journey and two acts of enchantment.
