Perhaps the cutest part of Jersey Nutcracker, Cookies are the children of Mama Cannoli and come out from underneath her enormous skirt to perform a high-spirited and energetic dance.

Be part of the magic! Nimbus’ Jersey Nutcracker offers performance opportunities for talented youth from the School of Nimbus alongside professional Nimbus Dance company dancers. The production reimagines the holiday classic with high-energy choreography, a New Jersey storyline, and Tchaikovsky’s iconic score. This year is extra special: our beloved production is expanding beyond Jersey City to tour at major venues across New Jersey. Don’t miss the chance to perform on some of the state’s most exciting stages!
Nimbus’ Jersey Nutcracker delights audiences, young and old, with a quirky and lovable story of two Jersey kids and their city adventure, filled with magic, battles with bullies and rats, stories of friendship, and exquisite dancing. Set to Tchaikovsky’s beloved score, Nimbus’ adaptation of The Nutcracker offers a thrilling, jazzy interpretation with a New Jersey twist.
Nimbus Dance performs Artistic Director Samuel Pott’s choreography against a dazzling backdrop of full-scale sets and animated projections of illustrated scenes, designed by Jersey City artists Laia Carbrera and Isabelle Duverger. With a delightful libretto co-written by Alysia Souder (The Institute for Music for Children) and Samuel Pott (Nimbus Artistic Director), Jersey Nutcracker transports audiences through classic New Jersey landscapes - parks, bustling streets, back alleys, sewers, and back to City Hall, with surprises, cheer, and a message of hope and resilience along the way.
