Nimbus Dance: Jersey City Nutcracker
Nimbus Dance’s annual twist on The Nutcracker guides audiences through the streets, parks and sewers of Jersey City in a production that pairs 15 professional dancers with more than 80 young perfomers. Nimbus leader Samuel Pott directs and choreographs the show, which is set to a jazzy variation on Tchaikovsky's score and includes animated projections by Laia Cabrera and Isabelle Duverger. The 2025 production spends a weekend at Newark's NJPAC before returning to the company's home base in Jersey City.Â
