Cohesion Dance Project presents the 3rd Annual Shira Greenberg's Nutcracker on the Rocks. This unique community based, rock-n-roll rendition of the traditional Nutcracker features the music of James Brown, Aretha Franklin, The Rolling Stones, Janis Joplin and more! With a fusion of modern dance styles and a live Harley Davidson on stage, dancers of all ages and abilities amp up the energy, infusing new life into the classic holiday tale, while leading audiences on a thrilling journey through the decades.
Originating in Albuquerque, NM nearly 20 years ago, the local Helena cast features over 50 dancers from across the community, ages 7-70, and four professional visiting guest artists from across the country. From one exciting scene to another, this performance showcases a unique and energetic fusion of dance styles, creative partnerships, and collaborations between dancers of all abilities, including people with disabilities. Through this unique production, Cohesion Dance Project strives to enrich, inspire and unite the community through dance!
