Now over 40 years young, the South Coast Repertory production of Charles Dickens's iconic holiday play returns to Segerstrom Stage, adapted by Jerry Patch and directed by Hisa Takakuwa. Victorian London comes to Costa Mesa as we follow the journey of miserly lender Ebeneezer Scrooge as he discovers the true meaning of happiness in the iconic story of redemption.

Magical toy soldiers, sparkling fairies, mischievous mice, and all the enchanting inhabitants of E.T.A. Hoffmann's whimsical world descend upon Costa Mesa's Segerstrom Hall this December for the new Southern California tradition of ballet master and ABT Artist in Residence Alexei Ratmansky's exhilarating imagining of The Nutcracker.

"Behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which shall be to all people!" Join your city's orchestra for the good tidings of the beloved classic, Handel's Messiah, performed live. Undoubtedly one of the most fantastic and epic experiences of the Holiday season, it's impressive for all audiences, be it your first or fifth time!
