INFORMATION FOR
William Paterson University in Wayne will present the holiday classic, Nutcracker! Magical Christmas Ballet, on Monday, November 14 at 7:00 p.m. in the Shea Center for Performing Arts on campus.
The largest touring production of its kind, Nutcracker! Magical Christmas Ballet, on its 30th anniversary tour, features world-class dancers and acrobats, unique storytelling, and visually stunning larger-than-life puppets that new and returning fans will love and recognize. The show evokes a simpler time filled with sweet dreams and Christmas magic in this production of the classic story set to the famous score by Tchaikovsky.
New to the production are a flock of white doves and a cadre of delicate marionettes crafted by master puppeteers in the World UNESCO Heritage city of Prague, Czech Republic. These intricate new puppets accompany the well-known Dove of Peace Adagio and The Land of Peace and Harmony in Act II of the production.
In solidarity with the artists and people of Ukraine, a portion of ticket proceeds will be donated to humanitarian relief efforts in Ukraine through UNICEF.
Tickets are $125 for Gold Circle, $65 for orchestra, $55 for front loge, and $45 for rear loge. Gold Circle patrons secure the best seats in the house and receive the 30th Anniversary coffee table book and collectible Nutcracker ornament.
