The San Jose Nutcracker
New Ballet and Symphony San Jose return for the 2025 holiday production of The San Jose Nutcracker, choreographed by New Ballet Founder and Director, Dalia Rawson.
In In addition to eight full-length productions of Tchaikovsky’s immortal classic, there will be three performances of a special one-act My Very First Nutcracker, ideal for families with toddlers, preschoolers, and young children.
This unique take on the classic tale of Clara and the Nutcracker is set against the backdrop of 1905 San Jose with landmarks of the era and dazzling scenic elements, including the historic San Jose Electric Light Tower and a skyline of the City in the turn-of-the last-century. The costumes for the first act were inspired by period dolls from History San Jose’s archives and the second act reflects the valley carpeted in orchard blossoms that inspired the name “The Valley of Heart’s Delight” while celebrating the heritage that has made the South Bay the center of innovation it is today.
