Set in 1920s America, Kremnev’s “The Art Deco Nutcracker” features Tchaikovsky’s score in an exciting and fast-moving, but nevertheless, classic ballet.

 

The Chicago Tribune has described it as “A glossy rendition filled with gorgeous, glitzy costumes” and The Cincinnati Enquirer writes that Kremnev has “brought dance to a whole new level.”

 

The vibrant “roaring” era costumes and stunning choreography offers a new approach to the story we all know and love with the historic Tchaikovsky score known around the world.
