Revisit the site of some of Macon's most classic performances when you step into the classic beauty of the Douglass Theater. This venue and attraction dates all the way back to the 1920s when it was an African-American movie and vaudeville hall. Later, in the 1960s, such iconic performers as Otis Redding and Ray Charles graced its impressively large stage. Amazingly, the theater is still in operation and takes great pride in maintaining its role in promoting the African-American experience in the areas of music, film and theater.

The arrival of Christmas brings with it many traditions. Trimming the tree, singing carols, buying presents and attending parties are all part of the fun. But another longstanding tradition at the end of the year is to attend the performance of The Nutcracker. This breathtaking presentation combines Tchaikovsky's magical score with stunning scenery and a graceful ballet. Make sure to get your tickets early, as this performance regularly sells out.
