Just likea??the original, ina??The Hip Hop Nutcracker, Maria-Clara and the Nutcracker Prince go on a dream adventure battling a gang of mice, visiting the land of sweets and learning the lessons of the holiday season.

"Now that we're almost eight months into the shutdown of the performing arts across the United States during this global pandemic, the industry is rising to the challenge with more high-quality exclusive live streaming opportunities," said Jody Grant, Programming and Marketing Director at Alberta Bair Theater. "I am continuing to curate content to add variety to people's screen time during the pandemic and to keep artists working, even in this digital format, and provide very limited box office revenue to ABT."
