Ballet for Young Audiences performs “The Nutcracker” at Queens Theatre in the Park from Dec. 28-30.
The production, which is a great introduction to the wonderful world of ballet, tells the timeless story of Clara and her nutcracker prince set to Tchaikovsky’s classic score. Just because it runs after Christmas doesn’t make it worth passing over. Between the beautiful costumes, the thrilling music and exciting story, this is a treat at any time of year.
“The Nutcracker” at the Queens Theatre in the Park [Flushing Meadows Corona Park in Corona, (718) 760-0064]. Dec. 28-30, 1 pm and 4 pm. Tickets $12. For info, visit www.queenstheatre.org.
