Showcasing everything from the Nutcracker to a Christmas Carol, the season brings holiday shows for Connecticut kids. These are some of our most beloved traditions this time of year. Starting in November and continuing through New Year's, there are family-friendly Christmas shows at community and city theaters from Bridgeport to Mystic. It's a Magic Cirque Christmas in Waterbury and New London. The Holiday Pops take the stage in Storrs. If you have a budding ballerina in your midst and Clara's story is on your must-see list, we have you covered for local performances of The Nutcracker. And, if you're up for a day trip, The Boston Ballet Company's Nutcracker is well worth the ride!

Grab your tickets for these holiday spectaculars now. Be sure to check out our list of the Top Holiday Activities and Christmas Events for Connecticut Kids for more seasonal family fun. Merry merry—almost!
