Max & Ruby bring to life a wonderful tradition this holiday season as they take to the stage their most magical performance yet! Inspired by one of the greatest musical scores ever composed - Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker Suite - the beloved bunny siblings star in Koba Entertainment's brand new musical production Max & Ruby in the Nutcracker Suite.

GREAT SHOW!!!, MY GRAND DAUGHTER LOVED IT AND WAS IN AWE.
It was great! I just wished that the doors to the auditorium opened a little bit earlier so we could have sat in our seats sooner. Other than that, I would definitely recommend it!
Fantastic! My kids danced and sang. They had such a great time!
Very easy to follow max and ruby version of the nutcracker. Super cute. Kids loved it. My three yr old boy followed along easily. We had a great day with the kids.
We thoroughly enjoyed the show itself - great family fun! The VIP pre-event was disappointing, especially the food offering. Also the amount of activities were very limited and whoever inflated the balloons should learn how to do it, as they kept popping and scaring kids and parents alike.
We were pleasantly surprised by the level of professionalism and timing to the show. Our kids were engaged throughout the entire show and when attention spans waned, there was a break or music changed! The snack bar and refreshments were very poorly managed and the wait staff was terribly unstaffed and managed.
I was very dissapointed with the VIP Meet and Greet...... What a watse of money and SOOOOO misleading!!!! We were to give our cameras to an employee to take pictures of the children, which was fine. I explained how to use the camera (which is not difficult). My child is up there standing with Max and Ruby and the employee is holding the camera up! To my surprise when my childs turn was done, the employee pass me my camera and states I wasn't able to get any pictures for you! Instead of taking pictures, she pressed video camera and record and the only shot I have is of Max and Ruby's feet. You would think since she was unable to take any pictures, she would have allowed my child to go back up so I could take them myself......BUT, NO, they only allowed each child to go up one time. Perhaps they should get competent staff, that know how to take pictures and follow instructions on how to take a picture. I was not the only one dissapointed with the incompitent staff member who didn't know how to use a camera. Why did we have to pass our Cameras to her is she doesn't know how to use any of them?? Now, my child has no pictures to look at of her and Max and Ruby. Try explaining that to a 3 year old!! The show itself was fine. but the dissapointment encountered from the meet and greet, made it difficult to enjoy the show!!!!!!
Sorry, this play was done poorly. It was not the magical event I thought it was going to be.
Disappointed the show was boring and my son wanted to leave. The ending was not too bad
My son enjoyed it a lot.. I'm glad there was a break in the middle of the show.. Really helped. The snacks and drinks were a little expensive. $3 for a water is kind of crazy. But the show was cute and worth it :)
Amazing and unforgettable experience for kids and family. :)
Great show to expose kids to the Nutcraker Suite and still keep their attention with interactive segments and sing a longs...
It was a real pleasure to watch the show with my girls. My younger one, who is just 3,5 enjoyed it very much. The only disadvantage was that they did not pronounce the whole name of the composer (just Peter!).
The show was just a delight to watch & was wonderful how the cast incorporated the audience into songs and the such. It was beautiful dancing, performance & all around fantastic show!
What a cute show. Our 3.5 year old loved singing along with the Christmas carols that the cast sang. The show was great, the dancing was beautifully done and it was very vivid and bright. Totally recommend this to the Max and Ruby fan in your house!
I thought the play was very sweet.....the kids were very much entertained however the intermission tended to lose a bit of their patience.....I noticed that most kids didn't sit so well after that. overall the performance was great I also was apart of the VIP party.....although very cute that the kids got to meet Max and Ruby, I felt like it wasn't organized all that well. The craft table was very small and some kids stayed there for quite awhile making it harder for other kids to participate.
My daughter just loved this show. She enjoyed all the dancing and singing. Great crowd participation.
This play was a great choice for my almost 4 year old. He had no idea who the Nutcracker was but with Max, Ruby and Grandma he started to understand it. The costumes were amazing, the songs were joyful and the adaptation was one that any child of any age would enjoy.
Beautifully done and enjoyable even for the adults!
