"The Yorkville Nutcracker"

"The Yorkville Nutcracker", Set in Old New York

Choreographer Francis Patrelle's special Old New York-set version of Tchaikovsky's timeless "The Nutcracker" graces the stage, with scenes depicting a holiday party at Gracie Mansion, dancing at the Crystal Palace and skating in Central Park. New York City Ballet principals Abi Stafford and Adrian Danchig-Waring star as the Sugar Plum Fairy and her Cavalier, backed by a talented company that includes dancers ages 5 to 85, along with Matthew Dibble, fresh off Twyla Tharp's 25th anniversary performances and "Movin' Out", and Julie Voshell of "Movin' Out".
