The Jazz Nutcracker!

Rocket For The Arts is very excited about Kevin Anderson’s The Jazz Nutcracker – it is only a few weeks away! This reinterpretation of the classic E.T.A. Hoffman story follows Tiara, a young girl living in Harlem in the 1920’s. Throughout one night, Tiara and her new toy Nutcracker find themselves fighting off evil and traveling to a land of jazz and sweets.

We are so excited to see this performance come to life through Kevin’s wonderful dances and direction. You can join us on December 15th at 2pm and on December 16th at 7pm to watch the show! It will be held at Gainesville High School Auditorium and tickets are $10 for adults, $5 for children.

Afterward there will be a Tootsie Ball Tea Party for the audience to join in! It is a great opportunity to meet and mingle with the cast, snap photos and enjoy some delicious treats! Admission for that is $5 for a child who brings an art supply (under 7 get in free). This event is to help support Rocket For The Arts, so we would love to see you there!
