Welcome to the home of NUTCRACKER! Magical Christmas Ballet in Easton PA: The State Theatre! Originally opened in 1910 as the Neumeyer Theatre, the venue underwent several name changes before opening as the State Theatre in 1930. The theater once hosted Vaudeville performances and silent films, but the development of talking pictures prompted the need for a larger movie screen as well as new equipment for stereophonic sound, both of which were installed.

The State Theatre began presenting rock concerts during the 1960s and 1970s. Under threats of demolition in the early 1980s, a group of citizens rallied together to raise money for building renovations, which were completed in 1990. Today, the State Theatre hosts musicians, comedians, dance performances, stage productions, and more.

Nutcracker wouldn’t be Nutcracker without the local Children’s cast! Dancing alongside the full professional international cast are local Easton children from Easton Ballet Academy. Easton Ballet Academy provides high-quality ballet training for our students. Based on the Vaganova Syllabus, Easton Ballet offers many programs, including pre-professional training, Boys program, and Adult program. Easton Ballet Academy has a state-of-the-art facility. All studios are equipped with professional ballet floors, mirrors, audio systems that are CD and iPad compatible. Easton Ballet Academy is located in the Historic District downtown Easton, across the street from The Easton public library.
