Nimbus Presents JERSEY CITY NUTCRACKER

For the 8th consecutive year, Nimbus presents local holiday favorite: Jersey City Nutcracker. Set to Tchaikovsky's renowned orchestral score, Jersey City Nutcracker tells the story of two children's city adventure; following them through fantasy, adversity and celebration with lessons about friendship and community along the way.

Directed and Choreographed by Nimbus Artistic Director Samuel Pott, with libretto by Alysia Souder, costumes by Jennifer Bentley, and lighting by Lance Michel, Jersey City Nutcracker features Nimbus Dance Works' Professional Company Dancers with talented local youth from the school of Nimbus Dance Works as well as from: Cornelia F. Bradford School, Frank R. Conwell Elementary and Middle School and Martin Center for the Arts. Lead youth performers include Lucy Reider and Quincy Willingham (High Tech High School), Angel Browne (Snyder High School) and Victoria Arias (Newark Arts High). Plus - guest appearances by local celebrities!
