The Nutcracker Series

I’ve been sharing so many Nutcracker posts that I wanted to round them all up in one place for you! The best place to start is with December: A Nutcracker Christmas, and then work your way through the story, linked below. If you are interested in learning about the history (of the book or the ballet), scroll all the way down to “The History” section. If a post isn’t linked yet, that means it’s coming soon, so check back for updates!
