Set to the legendary 1960 jazz suite by Duke Ellington and Billy Strayhorn, this immersive experience blends ballet, swing, breakdance, afrobeat and street dance with live jazz, spoken word and shadow puppetry. Directed by Larea Edwards, musical direction by Tenia Nelson, with an all-star cast and band - this is The Nutcracker as you’ve. never seen or felt it before.

Studies show that experiences create more lasting happiness than mere material gifts. Flowers die, chocolates disappear, but singing valentines create memories that last a lifetime.
”Singing telegrams qualify as emotionally charged events, which imprint in our long-term memories in a deeper way due to the heightened emotions involved,” explains Denver singing telegram vet Orange Peel Moses. “Whether the recipient is extremely surprised or genuinely touched, the experience of receiving a singing telegram stays with them fo the rest of their life.”
