Nutcracker

Kick off the holiday season by attending the “The Nutcracker” ballet.

This year is the Northwest Ballet Company’s 36th, and it’s another not-to-be-missed production over Thanksgiving weekend at the Bigfork Center for the Performing Arts.  These Company performances have been a holiday staple in the Flathead Valley for years.  Parents who began with bringing their kids are now grandparents bringing their kids and grandkids.  

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. 30th, at 2 p.m. and 7:30 p.m., and Sunday, Dec. 1, at 4 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 northwestballet.com.
