Ballet INitiative’s Nutcracker with a Twist brings Sugar and Spice to a holiday favorite!
Follow the classic story of Clara and her Nutcracker doll, with a twist! At a Christmas party in 1920, Clara receives a nutcracker doll and dreams that she comes to life to take her to the beautiful fantasy world full of sugary delights, the Land of Sweets. Set to both the original Tchaikovsky score and Duke Ellington’s jazzy suite, you’ll enjoy tapping soldiers, whirling snowflakes, and the Sugar Plum Fairy along with Charleston’s, flappers, and of course, jazz!
Join Ballet INitiative December 20th and 21st at 7:30pm and December 22nd at 2pm for a special twist on a holiday favorite. Fun for the whole family!
