Rocky Mountain Dance Theatre (RMDT) is bringing back Randy Pacheco as the guest artist performing the role of the Cavalier and local perfomer Jessica McNeil as the Sugar Plum Fairy for this year’s 28th Annual Nutcracker Ballet.
Pacheco is a soloist for Ballet Arizona in Phoenix. Pacheco is originally from Camaguey, Cuba and has been dancing with Ballet Arizona since 2015 and will be perfoming in his seventh Cody Nutcracker.
RMDT is a local 501c3 nonprofit performing arts organization that produces this annual weekend of performances which has become a cherished holiday tradition for so many in the surrounding area and even beyond as family, friends, and other Cody Nutcracker fans travel from all over the country to attend. This season RMDT is continuing to bring attention to the many attendees who come from out of town. Attendees can spread the word #codynutcrackerbroughtmehere. Any out-of-town guests needing hotel accommodation, reservations can be made directly through Moose Creek Lodge & Suites or The Chamberlin Inn in Cody. When calling to book, mention the “Cody Nutcracker” and receive a 5% discount at Moose Creek and a 15% discount at The Chamberlin.
This year a Nutcracker Nightcap is being added to the weekend of events. After the 7 p.m. performance on Saturday, Dec. 13, the Chamberlin Inn Cocktail Bar and Lounge will be hosting a Nutcracker Nightcap open for the public to come mingle with Nutcracker cast, director and crew. Festive cocktails and mocktails will be available for purchase. This event is not intended for young children.
RMDT’s Production of The Nutcracker brings the classic Nutcracker tale to life set to Tchaikovsky's famous score. It is a magical event about an enchanted Christmas Party where Clara is the guest of honor. After the party, the audience is witness to Clara's vivid dreams about her Nutcracker who comes to her rescue and then brings her to a land of dancing snowflakes and sugar treats.
Dates for 2025 performances are Saturday, Dec. 13 at 7 p.m. and Sunday, Dec. 14, at 2 p.m. at the Wynona Thompson Auditorium in Cody. Save time, money, and guarantee yourself a seat buy purchasing tickets online at rockymountaindancetheatre.tix.com or by calling 307-527-9973.
The performances regularly sell out. If any tickets remain available to purchase at the door, service fees per ticket will be more.
