Head to the Kaatsbaan Cultural Park's Black Box Theater for "Nut/Cracked" — The Bang Group’s beloved, witty response to "The Nutcracker" — which is returning to Kaatsbaan after sold-out performances last year.

Show schedule:
• Friday, Dec. 19, 7 p.m.
• Saturday, Dec. 20, 7 p.m.
• Sunday, Dec. 21, 2 p.m.

Choreographer David Parker draws inspiration from across the dance spectrum, blending tap, ballet, disco, and even bubble wrap to create a unique performance that reimagines Tchaikovsky’s iconic score.

With renditions ranging from Duke Ellington to Glenn Miller, "Nut/Cracked" transforms the familiar into something delightfully unexpected. Praised by the New York Times as “immensely entertaining” and “intensely musical,” this production combines humor and artistry in a way that will leave you seeing "The Nutcracker" in a whole new light.
