Axelrod Contemporary Ballet Presents The Nutcracker Rocks at Axelrod Performing Arts Center

Featuring American Idol Icon and Tony Award Nominee, Constantine Maroulis as UNCLE DROSS, The Nutcracker Rocks is a magical reimagining of a family holiday classic! It is a mixture of high-power music and dance that will transport you to a land of brave toy soldiers and sweet sugar plum fairies. Based on Hoffman’s original story, choreographer Gabriel Chajnik translates the Victorian-era Nutcracker from the bustles and ruffles of the 1890s to contemporary times. The beloved Tchaikovsky score is reimagined in collaboration with renowned rockers Alex Rosamilia and Alex Levine, members of The Gaslight Anthem.
