PUEBLO, Colo. (KRDO) The Nutcracker Ballet, put on by the Sangre de Cristo Arts and Conference Center, is a holiday tradition in Pueblo, and even with the COVID-19 pandemic, the show must go on.
Because of the pandemic, there were no live performances this year, but rather than cancel the ballet altogether, the arts center came up with a creative and safe solution.
“I think this was the brainchild of our CEO Jim Richerson, who said ‘Let’s just film this and then give it to the community as a gift this year,’” said Artistic Director for the School of Dance Nanine Wainwright

The Watchmaker s Song: A Drive-In Nutcracker Experience. This year, the audience will follow the Watchmaker and his loved ones through an entirely new narrative, as conceived by
Ventana Ballet s new co-artistic director,
Jerreme Rodriguez, in an effort to make the most of this nontraditional venue. The new adaptation honors the elements of
The Watchmaker’s Song that set it apart from traditional stagings of
The Nutcracker Ballet, they tell us, and it s enlivened by Duke Ellington’s jazzy rendition of the original Tchaikovsky music.
No events scheduled.
