Seattle City Nutcracker – DASSdance @ Broadway Performance Hall (Seattle – Capitol Hill)

DASSdance’s modern day Nutcracker returns to the stage inspiring a new generation with a flying LED lit mechanical doll, AI Robots in the battle scene illuminated in black light and an authentic journey through the Land of the Sweets.

Premiered in 2019, Seattle City Nutcracker is an unabashedly contemporary production showcasing Artistic Director/Choreographer Daniel Wilkins’ athletic All-Terrain melding of jazz, ballet, modern and acrobatics as well as tap and high flying aerial. A true reflection of local flavor from the perspective of Clara and Maria raised by their uncles the “Dros Bros.” at their Fix-It shop in the Central District. The “neighborhood kids” join the fun and face challenges as the story unfolds. Clara and Maria travel through The Land of the Sweets spanning across the globe from Ukraine to India, China to Africa, with African Flowers choreographed by Koach “Giggz” Crosby and danced by Kutt’N’Up.

Tickets ($34) here.
