This is not your usual Nutcracker!

A variety show-like approach to the holiday classic with eclectic dance styles, jamming soundtrack, and Clara - the star of the production - played by a lucky member of the audience picked from submissions before each show. With multiple choreographers and a large cast of performers from all over the city, this is a celebration of community and the diverse voices that make up the Stomping Ground L.A. family of artists.

Everyone is donating their time and talents to this production to raise money for the SGLA SCHOLARS PROGRAM where we provide scholarships to local youth and adult learners living in the vicinity of SGLA to attend classes and workshops at the space with the amazing companies and artists teaching here for FREE! We appreciate your purchase of tickets to make this program possible with 100% of the proceeds going to providing scholarships in 2025.
