About this event

Does Chicago need one more Nutcracker? When Clara is over 70, and living in a senior living arrangement, you bet!

Conceived, choreographed, and directed by former Joffrey Ballet dancer Lynne Chervony Belsky, Nutcracker Manor, turns the holiday classic on its ear. This heartwarming, multigenerational production stars a Clara as a grandma in her 70s, alongside a cast of snowflakes and flowers, many of whom are over 50.

The multigenerational cast features professional guest artists, mature ballet dancers and faculty from Time To Dance, faculty and students from owner and director Lisa Gold's North Shore School of Dance, and generous community volunteers.

An artist talk-back will take place at the end of the performance from 5:30 to 6:00 PM.
