The Nutcracker Tickets

It started late, the set and costumes were beautifully done. The dancers were elegant and graceful. This is my fifth time seeing this troupe perform and watching each dancer grow into their craft-they introduced some very special additions. Great talents one and all. Merry Christmas and thank you.

Beautiful dancers, costumes and entertaining. Very disappointed that there was not a live orchestra.

The Colours of the customs and the expertise of the dancers The sound very nice

I never seen nutcracker before. I did some research online and found out the original story was taking part in Russia. This one was made out all about the Ukraine which is great for proceeds to go towards humanitarian adds. But I feel the performance lost its originality. Main dancers were from Ukraine, wonder if Russian dancers were excluded because of this war. Feels like politics find its place in art and doesn’t feel good. I paid hefty price to bring my family but feel I didn’t get the most of it, original charm and wish someone has told me about.

I specifically chose international Toronto Ballet for a decent performance. Props and figures felt like I was watching a high school show as opposed to ballet. quiet disappointed especially for the price I paid...

Dancing, music and performers were all wonderful. The storyline is awful however. While I realize change is often good and reflects current situations, there are some key pieces from the Duluth version that are completely gone. Just one of many examples is no more Rat (or Mouse) King! That’s like having no Clara or no Nutcracker! My entire group, which I take as an annual family outing every year, Ww won’t go back. We’ll travel elsewhere. So sad.

I brought my granddaughter for the first time, and I was really looking forward to the original story. The dancing was beautiful and the music was great, but I miss the old story.

First of all just want to say i did enjoy the show but my wife wanted to see the nutcracker all her life so i finally got us tickets when we showed up they informed us that they were doing there own version of the nutcracker which upset me a little bit but all and all good show just not the nutcracker

First time viewer for me!! Loved it all! the kids were great and just a really great ballet

This event started 40 minutes late with no updates to audience, encountered technical difficulties about 30 minutes in, and resumed from the beginning after the 15 minute delay. We left at that point. Very frustrating evening. We’d rate ZERO stars if that were an option.

Show was good but there were little kids next to us and they should have never been allowed, they were in and out of their seat and talked during the whole first half. The dancers were out of sync and almost fell several times, maybe a bad night for them.

The whole experience was awesome! Easy to get to the DPac everyone was so helpful and nice. Had a great time

Absolutely beautiful! The ballerinas were in perfect form absolutely perfection! I’m looking forward to see the Nutcracker Ballet next year!

Started late by 20 minutes. Performers did a good job. Not interested in ever going again

Great performances! We were a little confused by the Duluth references but after we googled the storyline to refresh our memories it made sense. I think the younger children would have liked more color in the costumes. The dancers were great! The total lack of dialogue was hard for most of the adults in my group and the kids didn't get it at all.. Overall I'd go see again.

Excellent. Beautiful costumes, very professional. What a wonderful way to kick off the holidays with family and friends.

I see The Nutcracker at the same venue every year. It is always professionally done and amazing. This year, unbeknownst to me, it was a semi amateur production with a few professionals dispersed throughout. That was definitely not what I expected or wanted to see. Next year, I will look for a different production done elsewhere.

The performance was outstanding- creative, inclusive and awesome. However I paid $675.00 for 4 tickets from a re-sell site. I will never buy tickets on line again. This site took advantage of my inexperience.

Very Disappointed it was a local amateur production. Not what I was expecting.

What a joy to experience the magic of Christmas with the annual Nutcracker ballet! To be honest, I wasn’t aware that changes had been made, so it was difficult to let go of my expectations and stop comparing it to past seasons. One thing I missed especially was Mother Ginger, with her traditional huge dress, and I would wish to see that again, if possible. But other than that, the celebration of the local area proved to be delightful! I loved seeing the Depot train with the magician and the addition of the lumberjacks, which were phenomenal! All of the children were so precious to watch, and I love the inclusion of special needs children, which enhanced the whole experience so much! Absolutely precious! Each and every one of the dancers deserve the standing ovation that occurred at the end. Bravo! I am giving this 4 stars, due to the disappointment with Mother Ginger and her gingerbread children scene being so different than expected, and the fact that it was a Christmas miracle that I finally found parking in the ramp at such a full venue! Big smile!
