Goh Ballet’s The Nutcracker returns to the beautiful Queen Elizabeth Theatre for December 15 to 18 2022. Dancers will have the opportunity to work in-studio with world renowned choreographer Anna-Marie Holmes and perform to Tchaikovsky’s iconic ballet score performed live by the Vancouver Opera Orchestra. This is a chance to work and perform alongside International guest artists, and be part of Vancouver’s own Nutcracker production’s triumphant return to the stage.

Right from the curtain rising through the following two hours of the outstanding production, surprise and delight followed one after another.
