The Theater
The Hippodrome Theatre In Baltimore
Welcome to the home of NUTCRACKER! Magical Christmas Ballet in Baltimore! The Hippodrome Theatre, now a part of the France-Merrick Performing Arts Center, which first opened its doors in 1914 as a movie palace. Vaudeville performances were held there, too, featuring such legends as Red Skelton and Benny Goodman. The building underwent renovations in the early 1960s, reopening with the regional premiere of the film Cleopatra. The theater was closed for a short time in the 1990s, as the venue’s popularity waned. Today, the Hippodrome has regained its popularity and regularly hosts a variety of events, from Broadway productions to concerts to comedy shows.
