Why just see the Nutcracker when you can live it?
There is no place more secret or fascinating than childhood – especially for those of us who’ve left it behind. This December, American Contemporary Ballet offers re-entry through a magical door in the city to a mysterious holiday dream world.
In ACB’s extraordinary immersive staging of The Nutcracker Suite, guests are seated just a few feet away from the dancers!
Unlike most traditional ballet productions, the audience is invited into the ballet’s first act – celebrating with giant live dolls, skaters, and other characters from Tchaikovsky’s beautiful score is performed live, making the show all the more enthralling!the perspective of being inside a magical snow globe.
The ballet runs for about an hour, making it the perfect activity for families with children (or a group of jolly friends) — as do a series of odd and humorous surprises! After the performance, guests can linger in the Land of Sweets and meet all the dancers from the show at a reception with live music.
