Los Nutcrackers: A Christmas Carajo

Los Nutcrackers: A Christmas Carajo interweaves two holiday classics, The Nutcracker and A Christmas Carol to create a queer, Latino play about a gay couple who go on a psychedelic trip through their lives. Carlos and Gabriel, who have been together for almost fifteen years, have reached a breaking point in their aruging and fighting. The bickering has been so loud that it has reached the queer heavens, from which is sent a ghetto thug/diva spirit who guides them on a trip through their lives. They travel to the first time they met – back in 1986 at a white party at the Palladium, dancing to Lisa Lisa and Cult Jam – to a catastrophic trip to City Center to see The Nutcracker, to a dinner party with Martha Stewart fanatics and more. On Saturday December 9th there is a matinee performance at 3:00pm.
