Ballet West's The Nutcracker Opens November 27 in Ogden, Then Runs at Salt Lake City's Capitol Theatre December 4-26
Ballet West has announced that Willam Christensen's The Nutcracker will play Ogden, Utah, from November 27 to 29, 2026, before moving to the Janet Quinney Lawson Capitol Theatre (50 W 200 S) in Salt Lake City, Salt Lake County, from December 4 to December 26, with tickets starting at $30.
Christensen's 1944 staging was America's first full-length Nutcracker, and in 2024 Utah designated it a Living Historic Landmark, the first such designation for a stage production in the United States. The company is led by Artistic Director Adam Sklute.
The Capitol Theatre, built in 1913, is a historic downtown Salt Lake City venue. The company says the season totals nearly 30 performances, and weekend matinees and the shows just before Christmas sell out first most years.
Tickets are available through Ballet West's official website, with performance dates and prices listed there. (Source: Ballet West)
