The show closes on Sunday, December 11th, with a matinee at 3:00 pm.

Season membership packages are currently available and provide the best options for purchasing tickets. These memberships include invitations to Opening Night Galas, sponsorship  listings in our program and  tickets for Nutcracker and our Spring production, The Sleeping Beauty.  The best value for purchasing tickets is through season subscriptions. Additionally, the SCDT will pay the $3.00 per ticket fee which is assessed by the FMU Performing Arts Center on each ticket that is sold.

There are three seating tiers in the new facility and ticket prices vary with each tier. Adult prices are $30/$25/$20 and all student tickets, regardless of the tier, are $15.00. The PAC is a beautiful state of the art facility and the SCDT is excited to present The Nutcracker in such a perfect venue.
