The Nutcracker at Marriott Theatre

Around The Town Chicago - Highly Recommended

"...This is one hour of fun and music as directed and choreographed by the brilliant Matt Raftery. Glad to see him back on the scene. Welcome back, Matt! By the way, the dance numbers are worth the price of admission (and then some). Tap, jazz and ballet- loved it!"

Chicagoland Musical Theatre - Highly Recommended

"...The classic tale is retold through contemporary music by Marc Robin but still uses many of the loved and familiar musical vignettes of the Tchaikovsky ballet. It hearkens back the same dream-framing device made famous by the beloved The Wizard of Oz as family, friends and toys come to life in The Land of Dreams. This refreshing take on an old classic is sweet, funny and incredibly entertaining, especially for children, but certainly won't disappoint those who are only "young" at heart."
