Join us for the fifth anniversary of Casper’s beloved all-local production of The Nutcracker! This enchanting full-length ballet features more than 100 young dancers from across the community performing to Tchaikovsky’s timeless score. The show brings to life Clara’s magical journey through battlefields, snowy forests, and the Land of Sweets.

Highlights for 2025 include the full Sugarplum Pas de Deux performed by students Avery Mashek and Ayva Wilfong — a challenging piece typically danced by professionals. Their performance reflects years of training, trust, and partnership, and marks a major milestone in their artistic development.

With new characters and choreography added each season, the show continues to evolve as a unique celebration of the dancers’ dedication and artistry.

A festive and heartwarming experience for families of all ages — and a wonderful way to support Casper’s young performing artists.

As a special tribute to the season, the evening will conclude with a fireworks display orchestrated by Bruce Burns and cannon fire by Ucross neighbor Joe Reed.
