The Nutcracker

Drawing from his childhood memories of 'never quite fitting in', Chase Johnsey transforms Tchaikovsky's classic Christmas tale, The Nutcracker, into an emotional celebration of authenticity. A reminder for young audiences that the traits that make us different can become our greatest strengths. Lasting just under two hours, The Nutcracker invites families to step into a shared dance floor where empathy, courage, and community take center stage. Ballet de Barcelona. Chase Johnsey, direction. Choreography by Marta Bustamante, Chase Johnsey, Anna Ishii, and Jordi Rubio.
