About The Nutcracker

On Christmas Eve, two bickering siblings are gifted a peculiar nutcracker by their fabulously eccentric Aunt. What follows is a whirlwind journey into the whimsical world of the Mousey Realm, where they must unite to defeat the villainous, many-headed Mouse King before he turns Christmas into chaos.

Expect a riotous blend of cardboard wizardry, eccentric characters, and a squeaky ensemble of musical mice. Packed with high-energy antics, belly laughs, and toe-tapping festive tunes, this gloriously goofy production promises a merry dose of holiday cheer, with just the right sprinkle of cheesy charm.
