Armour Dance Theatre’s Nutcracker ballet is more than a holiday tradition. The cast of over 180 includes students from six Armour Dance Theatre locations, New World School of the Arts students in advanced roles, alongside world-class guest stars, ensuring high quality and diversity. Our goal is for all children in the audience to see performers who look like them.

Over 5,000 public school children experience this production annually. Armour Dance Theatre launched the region’s first Sensory-Inclusive Nutcracker, becoming a leader in making the arts accessible to all children.

The Nutcracker will be held at The Fillmore Miami Beach at the Jackie Gleason Theater for two field trip performances, as well as a matinee and evening performance for the general public. Tickets will go on sale on October 6th on LIVE NATION and at The Fillmore Miami Beach at the Jackie Gleason Theater box office.
