FREE To all

Our rousing, toe-tapping, high-kicking spin on the classical ballet choreographed and directed by Carolyn Paine is returning to delight audiences with a free virtual stream this year.

Beginning December 11, the critically acclaimed production alongside the documentary film created about it by Cine Verite Producitons will be presented in partnership with the Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art.

The steam will be available through December 31.

This production has truly become a staple in the holiday season for CT and we are very excited to utilize this opportunity of streaming the show online to allow it to reach a broader audience globally.
