City Center Ballet, with deep regret, has decided that we will not be able to present a 2021 Holiday Performance of Clara’s Dream, a nutcracker story. We had hoped that we would be able to present a modified production that accommodated pandemic restrictions and had begun preparations to do so, but the reality is that it is not possible to move forward at the present time. We of course are deeply disappointed to have to make this announcement, and we know that this news may be an even deeper disappointment to our dancers, their families, and our audience. We are exploring other, smaller, ways in which we can acknowledge the Holiday Season while observing the limitations placed on all of us by the ongoing health crisis. We encourage everyone to watch for further news as our plans evolve.
