Have you ever wondered how families entertained themselves before the days of Movies, TV, Radio, and the internet? They had to rely on their imagination, and create their own entertainment, by staging plays, skits, and tableaux in the home.
This show's creators, NY City Ballet principal dancers Bart Cook and Maria Calegari, originally devised it as an elaborate holiday entertainment for family and friends in their home in Kent, NY. The show grew from these creative, homespun roots into a fully produced, multimedia extravaganza, that involves many diverse groups in the community - singers, dancers, puppeteers, costume and set designers, and many others. This is also a "green" show - many of the puppets are made from salvaged, recycled materials.
The show is now in its third year, and the 2009 production will feature new dances, and, for the first time, a Nutcracker. If you're looking for family entertainment, produced by world-class performers, come enter the enchanted, fantastic world of "The Magic Of The Nutcracker Tale".
