Beyond the Nutcracker reimagines the holiday classic through the eyes of Emma, a young girl who journeys from World War II-era Chicago into a dreamlike realm of peace, unity, and wonder. This original ballet blends the beauty of Tchaikovsky’s beloved score with a moving narrative that speaks to audiences of all ages. Unlike traditional productions, Beyond the Nutcracker features culturally rich Act II divertissements—highlighting traditions from China, Iraq, Argentina, and America—each developed in collaboration with artists from those cultures to ensure authenticity and respect. Select performances include the added brilliance of a live orchestra and choir, bringing the music and story to life with even greater depth and resonance. More than a holiday tradition, Beyond the Nutcracker is an invitation to reflect on courage, compassion, and the beauty of reconciliation in a divided world.
