Why Watch Nutcracker Rouge
Why Watch Nutcracker Rouge
Nutcracker Rouge is a delightful reimagining of the beloved Nutcracker tale topped with a sensual and opulent flair that will warm your soul this winter season. This Off-Broadway production is a Burlesque confection of music, circus, dance and sumptuous design. Prepare to lose yourself in the pleasurable display of gorgeous and decadent winter entertainment, including a thrilling opera performed by Shelly Watson.
The Story
To put it in simple words, Nutcracker Rouge is a version of Tchaikovsky that Tchaikovsky might have just loved if he were visiting Manhattan in the early 21st century. Modern, erotic, and full of verve, this is one reimagining of a classic you don’t want to miss.

Critics Reviews
“The show looks at times like an adults-only Cirque du Soleil extravaganza, with trapeze acts and other athletic displays. Early on, Courtney Giannone delivers a gravity-defying routine using a big hoop with showstopping panache. The cast is full of classically trained dancers, and when he turns them loose, the result can be dazzling.”
“McCormick, with dance captain Allison Ulrich, creates a scrumptious mélange of graceful and provocative dance numbers, with moves inspired by the likes of Balanchine and Fosse. Zane Pihlstrom’s confectionary costumes — from licorice-like leather that hides very little, to bouncy cotton-candy gowns — all look good enough to lick.”
