A fresh, urban take on the Nutcracker story! With Duke Ellington’s version of the Nutcracker Suite plus cool hip hop, funk, salsa and swing music and dance. The inspiring story of two unhappy kids who find each other and transform themselves through the arts! This is NOT your mother’s Nutcracker!  Expecting a tree?  Nope. A Nutcracker?  Yes, but not the one you knew as a child.  A Prince and Mice? Uhuh. Rats and Ninjas?  Oh yeah! Want a cool contemporary story of transformation that kids, teens and adults can enjoy with all sorts of dance styles, from classic jazz to hip hop to contemporary to salsa to popping and more?  We’ve got your Nutcracker right here!
