- Toronto's most family-friendly Nutcracker welcomes all! We understand children can get excited and we will accomodate that as much as possible. However, if you are attending with a young child, and for some reason they get upset during the performance to a degree where it's disruptive for the rest of the audience, our ushers might need to ask you to temporarily leave the theatre. You can always come back when the child is quieted.

Patrons who placed orders for Nutcracker merch and chose to pick up their orders from the Boutique Table can do so starting an hour earlier before each show, when the main doors of Humberside are open, or after each show. Stay tuned for the online store announcement!
