It’s Not Cracker (2016)


The title of our contemporary, abbreviated rendition of The Nutcracker, evoked the original in familiarity and seasonality, but was different, contemporary, unique, fun, diverse and serious too. Dynamic contrasts in setting, music and dance were staged within Utah Museum of Contemporary Art's main gallery December 16, 17, 2016. This was a collaboration with the BBoy Federation.
