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.

Originally built in 1916, this is the place where area audiences first experienced movies that featured sound, then known as “talkies.” Things have progressed quite impressively here, as the entertainment venue still screens some of today's most acclaimed art films and import titles with the help of state of the art sound and projection equipment.
