Salish Sea Youth Ballet is proud to present the 2019 “Friday Harbor Nutcracker.” San Juan Island dancers will perform excerpts from the classic “The Nutcracker” ballet in an intimate tea party setting at Brickworks.

This interactive, family-friendly event immerses audiences into the magical story and is sure to become a family tradition. Our 2019 production features new, original ballet choreography that celebrates San Juan Island and its local culture while remaining true to “The Nutcracker’s” classical ballet roots.

The 45-minute youth ballet performance will be followed by holiday tea and sweets, a pop-up Nutcracker gift boutique, and opportunities to meet the Nutcracker characters in costume.

Performances are scheduled for 7 p.m. on Saturday, Dec. 7, and 2 p.m. on Sunday, Dec. 8, at Brickworks. Tickets are $30 for adults and $25 for children 10 and under, including tea and sweets.
