Jazz Nutcracker
This two-act production is under the artistic direction of our Director of Community Productions, Desiree Witt with choreography by Desiree Witt, Gretchen Hurd, Ashley Manzo, Mollie Mock Kaufman and Craig Kaufman. Incorporating the jazz rhythms and syncopations of Duke Ellington’s rendition of Tchaikovsky’s Nutcracker score with jazz band instrumentation, this year’s Nutcracker hopes to surprise everyone. Combining jazz, tap, modern, contemporary ballet, and even hip-hop with non-traditional costumes and music of Ellington, Glenn Miller, and Tex Beneke will leave audiences with toes tapping and fingers snapping.
The 70-person cast of The Jazz Nutcracker will spread its holiday magic to the Robinson Grand Performing Arts Center on November 23, 2019 at 6:00 pm.
