About the 2022 Show
In Snowbound, audiences were invited to the Stahlbaum family’s annual Christmas Eve party, until a blizzard hit San Francisco and turned the party into a surprise winter wonderland.
Audiences waltzed, marched, pirouetted, and sang along to music from The Nutcracker, performed live by the 75-piece San Francisco Lesbian/Gay Freedom Band, the Official Band of San Francisco.
Part comedy musical, part dance-it-yourself ballet, and part symphonic concert, the 2022 show marked Dance-Along Nutcracker’s return to live, in-person performances for the first time since 2019.
About Dance-Along Nutcracker
Dance-Along Nutcracker® is San Francisco’s joyful, interactive holiday show where live music, theatre, and playful audience participation come together for a family-friendly celebration.
Produced by the San Francisco Pride Band, the Official Band of San Francisco, Dance-Along Nutcracker blends Tchaikovsky’s Nutcracker Suite with Broadway, pop, movie, and contemporary favorites. Each year, the 75-piece band performs an all-new musical theatre storyline filled with big characters, humor, choreographed dance numbers, and plenty of chances for the audience to join the fun.
When the “Dance Along!” cue appears, the whole theatre becomes a tutu-filled dance floor for kids and adults.
This one-of-a-kind Bay Area holiday tradition welcomes all ages — whether you dance center stage or enjoy the spectacle from your seat. To check showtimes, purchase tickets, and learn more, visit DanceAlongNutcracker.org.
