A Bronzeville Nutcracker
A Bronzeville Nutcracker, presented by The Willingham Project, is returning for another holiday season. Choreographed by dancer and artistic director Lisa Johnson-Willingham, this modern spin on the classic holiday tale follows Peggy, a child growing up in Chicago's Bronzeville community, who, through a magical journey, learns the true meaning of the holidays and family traditions via a cast of characters including "Kutie Patootie," the Candy Cane Kids, and the Jingle Bell Rockers.
Catch A Bronzeville Nutcracker at the Harold Washington Cultural Center, 4701 S. King Dr., Saturdays, December 4 and 11 at 7:30pm, and Sundays, December 5 and 12 at 3pm. Tickets are $20-$25 and can be reserved online. For more information, contact 773-269-9147.
