Every fall when our students return to the studio, we begin work on one of our largest undertakings of the year. Due to COVID-19, this year's production will look very different as we will not be able to welcome the hundreds of people who come to view the production in the beautiful Mandel Hall on the The University of Chicago campus. Despite this, HPSD is looking forward to delighting our community with our first ever Virtual Nutcracker, featuring some of our young dancers on Zoom as soldiers and mice, HPSD's youth companies filmed in our first studio, and memories of our twelve graduating Seniors from Nutcrackers past. As always, our annual production of The Nutcracker, will include a mix of traditional and original choreography, handmade costumes, and engaging narration to bring the production to life! 

Tickets go on sale Tuesday, December 1 online only!
