Premiering in 2023, this updated, stereotype-shattering version of The Nutcracker tells the beloved story of a strange and wonderful Christmas Eve from the perspective of curious young Marie. With the help of her Aunt Drosselmeyer, Marie learns to unleash the power of her imagination to take the audience with her on a wild adventure. This fresh take on a fantastical story still features the incomparable score by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky.
Come see the performance that Pointe Magazine 2023 Readers’ Choice called, “hands down the most magical version of The Nutcracker I have ever seen"! With choreography by Jacobs faculty member Sasha Jones and featuring performances from students of the Jacobs School's Opera and Ballet Theater program, the evening promises to be a holiday event to remember!
For a membership contribution of $240, or an ongoing monthly contribution of $20 as a WFIU sustainer, you will receive two tickets to see The Nutcracker at the IU Musical Arts Center on Thursday, December 5th OR Friday, December 6th, 2024, at 7:30 PM.
