A whimsical re-thinking of Tchaikovsky's The Nutcracker with comedic narration reveals an alternate reality of what really happened on Christmas Eve in a light-hearted, satirical fashion. The music has been re-composed and arranged by Matt Osika, cleverly weaving Tchaikovsky's charming melodies with elements of surprise, parody and even incongruous harmonies to thwart your expectations. Reception to follow.
