NOT-Cracker

Open Space presents their unconventional winter DANCE show, NOT-Cracker! Get it? Experience Portland’s very own holiday spectacular, set in the city we all love. NOT-Cracker tells the tale of Ted, an unfortunate friend who thinks they can't dance--until they are swept up by a cast of wilding characters. Join Ted as they enter NOT-Cracker's colorful world, where dance finds us all!

Choreographed by Open Space co-founders Franco Nieto, Charlene Hannibal, Maeve Dougal, and renowned Tokyo Street artist, Uno; NOT-Cracker will feature Open Space’s company artists, the unforgettable Street dancer NØIR, an act by Charles Roy starring Portland’s House of Ada (HBO’s Legendary), and over fifty children from The School at Open Space.

Grab your friends and family and make a new NOT-so-traditional holiday tradition!
