Nutcracker meets Duke Ellington

The SSO teams up with the SJO to bring a Christmas classic – Tchaikovsky’s beloved seasonal hit the Nutcracker Suite alongside Duke Ellington’s jazz take on it. A night of holiday cheer, orchestral sounds, and a jazzy good time.

Think Sugar Plum Fairy meets Sugar Rum Cherry!
