Three Nutcrackers In One Year

The original San Jose Nutcracker presented by San José Dance Theatre is celebrating 55 years of magic! The longest-running live production of The Nutcracker in San Jose has been a Bay Area family tradition since 1964.

San Jose Dance Theatre is excited to present three exciting Nutcracker productions in 2020 all streamed directly into your living room. We have gone into the archives and will be streaming to our subscription platform the 30th Anniversary production filming in 1995. Additionally, available on our streaming platform will be the 54th Nutcracker filmed in 2019 at San Jose Center for the Performing Arts. Both of these productions will be available for unlimited access via our digital platform, Friends of the Ballet.

In addition, join San Jose Dance Theatre for a one time only special event featuring excerpts of The Nutcracker filmed on location around San Jose. This 2020 special event will also be streamed into your living room on our digital platform for just $11.99 per month. 
BRAVO to Linda Hurkmans and SJDT!! I just watched the 55th annual Nutcracker and I thought it was beautifully done and very innovative. I loved seeing it done outdoors and the dancers and scenery/locations were just beautiful! Well Done!!! xo

How creative and beautiful this Nutcracker was! Very much enjoyed it! It's been a while since I've seen any dancers from the studio but I did recognize Jules and Twilight, didn't see Natalie. I also enjoyed watching Taunt and Colors. A lot of good things going on at SJDT, Bravo to you all!

Wow, I just watched the new Digital Dance 1 video on the streaming platform. What a beautiful compilation of works by SJDT. I love the professional dancers and the dark stage setting complemented the entire performance. To top it off, no ads, just uninterrupted beautifulness, and excellent streaming quality.
