The classic 1892 Nutcracker Ballet grows up in this all-out spectacular rebirth, merging burlesque, ballet, jazz, comedy and a whole lot of glamour. Cue “Land of the Sweets: The Burlesque Nutcracker.” Now in its 14th year — this spectacular holiday show has won the hearts of audiences young and old and created a romping holiday tradition in Seattle. Join us, as we draw back the velvet curtain and follow the show’s creators and producers, Lily Verlaine and Jasper McCann, in addition to the show’s artisans, performers and musicians, and take an irresistible journey into how this magical show is brought to the stage, snow and all.
