There’s no question that "The Nutcracker" is one of the most beloved holiday performances in the world, thanks to its story of a magical journey full of adventure and fantasy. Now, from December 7 through December 15, you can see this classic ballet being performed by the Rockville Civic Ballet at the F. Scott Fitzgerald Theatre. Over the years, putting on this community-based show has become a Rockville tradition, with participation from local artists, schools, and musicians.

Want to be part of the story? Gather a group of neighbors, family, and friends and head to the theatre to enjoy this classic holiday tale. Love what you see? You can even sign up to volunteer your help on future productions (set designers and technical crew members are always needed). Tickets are $17 online and the show is expected to sell out, so head over to the website and reserve your seat today.
