Sippin’ in slippers: Don’t let the coronavirus knock you off your feet this holiday season. But do feel free to stay home in your slippers to enjoy the beloved story of Clara’s Christmas journey in Charlottesville Ballet’s The Nutcracker: A Virtual Gala. The evening will be filled with special guests and local musicians, and the Quirk Hotel is providing curbside pickup for accompanying sweets, eats, and grownup treats (read: craft cocktails).
Sunday 12/13, $50, 4:30pm. charlottesvilleballet.org.
