Are the kids missing the magic of the holidays?  Or maybe you didn’t get to see the season’s most classic show? Well, you have one last chance to recapture the holiday spirit on stage before we say farewell for a while.  The Synetic Family Theater’s production of The Nutcracker has two final performances this weekend, January 15 & 16 — and KFDC readers can get a discount on tickets.

The show has gotten great reviews for both the production itself as well as its unique twist on a classic tale.  Based on the book “The Nutcracker And The Mouse King” by E.T.A. Hoffman, Synetic’s version includes the full intriguing story of how and why the nutcracker came to be.  Check out this review from Our Kids for a first-hand account of what to expect.  And for a more detailed description of the show, see the Synetic Theater website.

Both the Saturday and Sunday shows begin at 11am.  Tickets are $17.50 in advance or $20 at the door. Purchase online using the promo code KFDC and get 10% off your total!

The Synetic Theatre is located at 1800 S. Bell Street in Crystal City.
