Music Direction by Donato Cabrera
Featuring Rita Moreno
December 20 - 21, 2016
The EGOT (Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, Tony) winner and utterly fabulous Rita Moreno joins the orchestra to narrate Prokofiev’s cherished tale, Peter & The Wolf. The holiday cheer continues with all the tunes you know from The Nutcracker, and the crowd gets a little rowdy (which we love), with Sleigh Ride and a full-on audience sing-along. Arrive early for kids’ Peter & The Wolf puppet making in the lobby.
