The Hip Hop Nutcracker
November 27, 2017 @ 7:30 pm - 10:00 pm
A holiday mash-up for the entire family, The Hip Hop Nutcracker, a contemporary re-imagination of Tchaikovsky’s timeless music, sets out on a third national tour following the success of two previous sold-out tours.
The Hip Hop Nutcracker is an evening-length production performed by a supercharged cast of a dozen all-star dancers, DJ and violinist. Through the spells cast by the mysterious Drosselmeyer, Maria-Clara and her Nutcracker prince, travel back in time to the moment when her parents first meet in a nightclub. Digital scenery transforms E.T.A. Hoffmann’s story of sugarplums into 1980s Brooklyn. The Hip Hop Nutcracker celebrates love, community and the magic of New Year’s Eve.
The event features special guest emcee Kurtis Blow, one of the founders and creators of recorded rap. A timeless artist and hip hop legend, he blazed the trail for early Hip-Hop artists.
Doors open at 6:30, show starts at 7:30.
