Jersey City Nutcracker

Dates: December 9 – 23

Time: 3 pm & 7 pm

Nimbus Dance’s beloved Jersey City Nutcracker is back, and high on the list of must-see Jersey City holiday experiences! Presented at the new Nimbus Arts Center, Nimbus Dance will offer 13 performances of the quirky and lovable adaptation of Tchaikovsky’s timeless classic, which takes place in Jersey City and weaves together themes of magic, adventure, family, and friendship.

The highly acclaimed Nimbus Dance performs against a dazzling backdrop of full-scale sets and fantastical projections of illustrated scenes. Audiences are transported across the city – through parks, lively avenues, deserted alleyways, sewers (for an epic battle scene!) and back to the City Hall, with surprises, cheer, and a message of hope and resilience along the way.

Choreographed by Samuel Pott, with animated scenic projections by Jersey City-based video artists, Laia Cabrera and Isabelle Duverger, and a delightful libretto co-written by Alysia Souder and Samuel Pott, Jersey City Nutcracker takes audiences on a magical shopping-cart-turned-sleigh-ride with twists and turns the whole family will enjoy!

Attendees can expect wholesome (albeit, a little wacky!) holiday fun with artisan gift vendors, holiday art market, and more!
