A Seattle holiday tradition since 2006, Verlaine and McCann's Land Of The Sweets: The Burlesque Nutcracker gives the traditional ballet a bawdy makeover!
Land Of The Sweets, voted “Best Burlesque in Western Washington” by King 5, features top-notch dance talent, opulent costuming, incredible choreography from the classically-trained Lily Verlaine, and stunning original jazz arrangements of the Tchaikovsky score by Jasper McCann, Kate Olson, and Michael Owcharuk.
All your favorite characters will be back, including Lily Verlaine's steamy Sugar Plum Fairy, Tory Peil's vivacious "toreadora" Hot Chocolate, the light-juggling magic of Babette La Fave, and the ever-loveable Snowflakes… not to mention our 9-piece jazz orchestra, The Nutcracker Nonette!
This "rollicking, frolicking, unabashed and uninhibited celebration of the season" (Seattle P.I) showcases an all-star cast from Seattle's Burlesque A-list and the finest dancers and jazz musicians in the Pacific Northwest.
Come celebrate the season with us and see why "audiences for these sold-out shows...go wild" (Seattle Times). With a run of 26 performances, you don't have to be left out in the cold... join us!
