ANTHONY WILLIAMS' URBAN NUTCRACKER
Sunday, 12/10 from 11 am-12:30 pm NHPBS
This celebration of multicultural communities puts a modern spin on the 19th-century fairy tale and transports viewers to an enchanted world not unlike theirs. Drawing upon classical ballet, urban tap, hip-hop, swing, flamenco, step, and jazz, the performance uniquely retells a Christmas classic. ANTHONY WILLIAMS' URBAN NUTCRACKER Streaming Video
