Nimbus Arts Center, 329 Warren Street, Jersey City
Since 2010, Nimbus Dance has drawn together professional dancers, youth of all backgrounds, and local celebrities to present Jersey City Nutcracker. The adaptation of Tchaikovsky’s timeless classic takes place in Jersey City and weaves together themes of magic, adventure, family, and friendship, and featuring the sights, sounds, and characters you might find throughout Jersey City neighborhoods. Jersey City Nutcracker plays like a love letter to Nimbus’ hometown; a statement of commitment and of perseverance from Nimbus to local families and youth of the community.
Choreographed by Samuel Pott, with fantastical, animated scenic projections by Jersey City-based video artists, Laia Cabrerra and Isabelle Duverger, and a delightful libretto co-written by Alyssa Souder and Pott. This story takes on new magic!
Expect wholesome (albeit, a little wacky!) holiday fun with some interactive moments throughout the evening. Whether you are a Jersey City Nutcracker devotee or if this will be your first experience, it promises entertainment that the whole family will enjoy. tickets
