Did you know? The first performance of “The Nutcracker” was held in 1892.

Today, the classic ballet has become an integral part of holiday traditions worldwide — and Texas Ballet Theater is bringing it to our very own backyard this season.

Fort Worthians can catch a two-hour performance, set to a classical score by Tchaikovsky, from Friday, Dec. 13 through Sunday, Dec. 29 at Bass Performance Hall (and don’t miss ugly sweater nights).

Pro tip: Snag a season package.
