Robert F. Panara Theatre, NTID
April 4-6, 2025
The Cracked Nut is an experience, a reimagined rendition of the classical ballet Nutcracker, transported to the vibrant setting of 1940s Harlem, New York. In this innovative adaptation, traditional gender roles are transcended, and a culturally diverse mix of dance genres takes center stage, all set to the iconic music of Duke Ellington's Three Suites.
