A delightful twist on our magical holiday tradition for children, families, & friends. Let us help you make holiday memories with this one-of-a-kind live experience.

What is the Nutcracker Tea?

A New Orleans annual holiday tradition, The Nutcracker Tea will delight and engage your family this holiday season. Her Royal Highness, the Sugar Plum Fairy, has made sure that your afternoon is nothing but whimsical and has invited her dear friends from The Nutcracker to celebrate the defeat of the Mouse King with a fanciful afternoon tea party.

Throughout the event, guests will have a chance to:

• -Mingle with costumed Nutcracker dancers
• -Make holiday crafts
• -Write letters to Santa
• -Enjoy a live performance by our NOLA Dance Project company members
• -Take photographs with the Sugar Plum Fairy or Clara and her Nutcracker
• -Visit with Santa

Proceeds from The Nutcracker Tea support the education and community engagement programs of the NOLA Dance Project & The Studio School of Dance, celebrating its 10th anniversary this year.

NOLA Dance Project & The Studio School of Dance dedicates more than $10,000 annually to master classes, and community outreach programs. Funds raised from the event allow us to award merit and need-based scholarships.
