On the seventh go-round, Ventana Ballet & Red Nightfall Dance Theatre partner in presenting this diverse reimagining of The Nutcracker. Delving into the character of Clara, who in this story is a young woman finding her way in life, the production combines many dance styles with jazz as well as interactive stage craft. “To be so close to something you know so well from afar is to see it anew,” wrote our former Arts Editor Robert Faires of his Watchmaker experience. “It is magical, and in a way that is all this show’s own.” – James Scott
