A holiday staple in the world of ballet, The Nutcracker has returned for another holiday season. Enjoy Orlando Ballet’s fantastical performance of Tchaikovsky’s classic at the Dr. Phillips Center over 18 performances.

Follow young Clara as she embarks on a journey with a nutcracker doll that magically comes to life, and encounters characters from a whimsical universe — including the Sugar Plum Fairy, the Mouse King and the heroic Nutcracker.

Family-friendly performances with pre-show children’s activities, adjusted sound and lighting and relaxed exits with re-entry to the theater are available for the matinee showings Dec. 14 and Dec. 21. VIP ticket packages with premium reserved seating, snacks, drinks and exclusive merch are available for purchase online. You, like Clara, won’t want to wake up from this one.

Opens Friday, Dec. 6, Steinmetz Hall, Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts, 445 S. Magnolia Ave., drphillipscenter.org, $39-$550.
