We are so excited to experience the holiday magic in NYC and one of our favorite things to do is to experience The Yorkville Nutcracker, presented by Dances Patrelle. This season you can experience this classic performance — from December 11-12, 2021 at The Kaye Playhouse at Hunter College, marking the 25^th anniversary of this production!

Set in 1895, The Yorkville Nutcracker features lavish sets and costumes that takes the audience on a tour through Olde New York’s most beloved landmarks, including a holiday party at Gracie Mansion, dancing at the Crystal Palace in the New York Botanical Garden, and skating in Central Park. The Yorkville Nutcracker provides an opportunity for young dancers to dance alongside professional artists. Courtesy of New York City Ballet, Abi Stafford will return as the Sugar Plum Fairy with Jared Angle as the Cavalier.

Performed by Dances Patrelle (dP) is a dynamic professional ballet company celebrating its 33rd season! dP presents two annual seasons in New York – the timeless holiday tradition, The Yorkville Nutcracker, and a spring repertory season featuring world premieres and classic Patrelle favorites. Mr. Patrelle’s body of work includes over 50 original ballets choreographed for Dances Patrelle, and spans an incredibly wide range of styles, from his beloved American Songbook collection, to such contemporary classics as Madame X, Macbeth and Rhapsody in Blue.
