Then and Now

November 6, 2025

In the heart of downtown San Antonio, the glow of the Majestic Theatre’s marquee lights up Houston Street, drawing a stream of theatergoers toward its ornate interior.

Clara’s Journey Continues

November 6, 2025

On Christmas Eve, young Clara is gifted a beautiful Nutcracker doll by her mysterious godfather, Drosselmeyer. That night, as the clock strikes midnight, Clara finds herself in the middle of a magical battle between toy soldiers led by the Nutcracker and an army of mice commanded by the fierce Mouse King.
After the Nutcracker triumphs, he transforms into a prince and invites Clara on a fantastical journey. Together, they travel through the sparkling Land of Snow and arrive in the enchanting Land of Sweets, where they are greeted by the Sugar Plum Fairy and a host of delightful characters from around the world. Each one performs a unique dance in Clara’s honor.
