It’s not too late to catch the holiday show at Puppetworks, “Nutcracker Sweets.” Based on Pyotr Tchaikovsky’s classic ballet, it features candies and sweet fruits dancing; the companion story, “The Steadfast Tin Soldier,” is based on a Hans Christian Anderson tale. Both plays feature the wonderful puppets of Puppetworks and are suitable for children ages 3 and up. Performances are Jan. 7 and Jan. 8, at 12:30 pm.
Tickets are $7 for children and $8 for adults.
