Memorial City will celebrate the holiday season with performances of "The Nutcracker on Ice" as internationally acclaimed skaters perform the holiday favorite at Ice Skate USA in Memorial City Mall. A cast of more than 150 skaters will perform the holiday favorite, making it the largest performance in Mall history.

Performers include regional level skaters Alice Gee and Mikayla Forbes (this year's regional finalist), national level ice dancing teams Rebel Rodriguez-Avellan and Byrdee Darling, and Racer Rodriguez-Avellan and Cricket Darling, as well as a host of talented Houston-area skaters. World level Houston Ice Theater will also provide a special performance. 

In addition, special guest Olesya Webb, a member of Team USA's Rhythmic Gymnastics Team and Ice Skate USA's conditioning coach, will perform as an Arabian Queen in the Land of Sweets. Live piano and violin musical accompaniment will be provided throughout the performance.

Each performance includes an intermission, in which a meal may be ordered if desired and served on site by California Pizza Kitchen and the Coffee Beanery.
