Five Things: Nutcrackers for the Holidays!
A movie and a play, both local, to bring in the Christmas season.
- See the Nutcracker in the movies,, a beloved holiday tradition for generations of families around the globe, which will be shown in HD tonight at the Digiplex Rialto Theater in Westfield. The performance is courtesy of the Royal Ballet of London. Tickets are $15 and can be bought via their website.
- Or see the 'Nutcracker and I' live. But this is a comedy, being shown at the George Street Playhouse in New Brunswick tonight at 8 pm. The new holiday event is by Emmy Award winner Peter Brash and Gerard Alessandrini, author of the long-running hit “Forbidden Broadway.” This send-up of the holiday classic features Tchaikovsky’s music and follows the adventures of a girl who gets the lead in her town’s production of “The Nutcracker” but breaks her leg in an accident during rehearsal. Tickets are $47.50. For more info, call 732-246-7717.
