The Nutcracker
Every December the Cartersville City Ballet presents "The Nutcracker." Although 2020's production was entirely filmed at iconic locations in Cartersville and Bartow County and screened online, the beloved holiday classic is traditionally presented at The Grand Theatre in Downtown Cartersville. "The Nutcracker" features Cartersville City Ballet members and students of the Cartersville School of Ballet. The show also often includes guest appearances by community members.

This year audiences can experience Cartersville City Ballet’s classic production of “The Nutcracker” in a unique new way. An entirely filmed experience, the 2020 “A Cartersville Hometown Nutcracker” takes place in iconic locations of Cartersville and Bartow County.
The film begins at a lavish Christmas party at the home of our heroine, Clara. Clara receives an unusual gift of a Nutcracker Doll from her beloved Godfather Drosselmeyer. As the evening ends, Clara experiences a magical journey somewhere between reality and a dream. Join Clara as she encounters mischievous mice and their Queen, meets a handsome Prince, and frolics with dancing Snowflakes and the Snow Queen. Clara then travels to Lands Far Away where she is treated to dances by the Dew Drop Fairy and her Forest Fairies, lively Candy Canes, a Shepherdess and her Sheep, Arabian Ballerinas, Spanish Ladies, Sweet Treats, Sparkling Sapphires and beautiful Waltzing Flowers.
Fan favorite dances are reimagined in new spaces, with new characters and surprises along the way. From the historic Roselawn Museum Home to the beautiful natural setting of Barnsley Gardens Resort and from beloved outdoor spaces along Main Street to inside downtown Cartersville small businesses, the dancers of Cartersville City Ballet weave together a timeless story unique to Cartersville, Georgia.
