Our Nutcracker for Kids is a one hour, condensed and narrated version of the full story of the Nutcracker, in which all parts are danced by Dance for Joy students. It allows audience members of all ages to experience the magic of the Nutcracker during the holiday season!
Our first production was in 2008 on the Tom Thumb stage. We expanded to the Paramount Center for the Arts in Peekskill in 2010, and were fortunate to be able to move to the beautiful Putnam Valley HS Performing Arts Center in 2012 when the Paramount closed. In 2014 we moved to Yorktown Stage, where all further performances have taken place.
