Nutcracker Tea Party

Idaho Ballet Theatre hosted their inaugural Nutcracker Tea Party this past December. It was a magical family-friendly event perfect for the child in all of us! This sold-out experience brought all the joy of the season. Guests were able to join beloved Nutcracker characters for a magical and festive morning at the historic Colonial Theatre’s Willard Arts Center.

From the moment guests entered the theatre, they were transported to an enchanting winter wonderland. Toy soldiers lined the way and themed tables awaited guests in the Land of Sweets. Once at their table, guests indulged in sweet treats and worked on a craft. Afterwards, the Sugar Plum Fairy conducted an interactive reading of The Nutcracker complete with IBT dancers acting out the scenes. Together with iconic characters, such as the Snow Queen, Clara and the Sugar Plum Fairy, guests posed for pictures.

Undeniably, the Tea Party was a huge success! We hope this becomes part of your annual holiday traditions.


Thank you for celebrating with us!
