Ford's Theatre National Historic Site

When I lived in DC, I went to Ford’s Theatre back-to-back night to watch The Nutcracker during the Holidays and it was magical each time. It was so much fun taking the boys there when they were around the same age I was when I first visited during my 8th grade trip. It is a legendary theatre, indeed!

Fun fact, I saw The Nutcracker Ballet her two night in a row when I was working on Capit0l Hill. Friends bought tickets one night and then my work colleagues all went the next night. Each night was magical.
