Soar with the Russian Troika as they leap into the second weekend of The Nutcracker, featuring Second Soloist Tyson Ali Clark.

Think it’s too late to see The Nutcracker? Don’t jump to conclusions—tickets are still available through Dec 28 at the Citizens Opera House.

Russian Troika is a part of Clara's imaginary world where her sweets come to life.  The concept and choreography originate in 1890 and are meant to celebrate Slavic traditional dancing.
