Christmas Legend – Modern Nutcracker Ballet
Once upon a time – more then magic was about to happen the night before Christmas. This show presents themes of human compassion, love, and friendships while spinning a well-known holiday tale and putting out fun, cool vibes.
Moving past outdated scenes from the original Nutcracker, the Aru Dell’Arte is excited to present diversity of characters, elevate female-lead roles, and include gender-neutral approach in dance partnering.
The show features works of recognized visual and installation artists from Washington DC. Following the performance, there will be a 30-minute reception featuring artwork and a silent auction in support of the local art community.
*note another performance will take place on Dec 23rd 5-6:30pm
