‘The Nutcracker’ coming to Bigfork

| November 20, 2024 12:00 AM

The Northwest Ballet Company will perform “The Nutcracker” at Bigfork Center for the Performing Arts over Thanksgiving weekend, a holiday staple in the Flathead Valley for years.

“Seeing the children dressed up in their Christmas best, eyes excitedly glued to the stage, taking pictures during the Sugar Plum Fairy Parade with the ‘big girls,’ walking out with a Nutcracker doll of their very own to commemorate the event - it blesses my heart every year!” Director Marisa Roth said in a press release.

Reserved tickets for the Northwest Ballet Company’s event are available on-line at their website, www.northwestballet.com or their Facebook page, www.facebook.com/NWB.Co.  Performances are Saturday, Nov. 30, at 2 p.m. and 7:30 p.m., and Sunday, Dec. 1, at 4:00 p.m.  The ever-popular Sugar Plum Fairy Parade will follow the 2 p.m. matinee on Saturday.  

Ticket prices are $25 Adults, $23 Seniors (65 and older), and $16 Children (12 and under).  On show days, tickets will be available at the Bigfork Center’s box office, 526 Electric Avenue, Bigfork, one hour before the performances start.  For more information, please call the Northwest Ballet at (406)755-0760, e-mail them at info@northwestballet.com, or visit their website at www.northwestballet.com.
