Hoffman’s original story The Nutcracker and the Mouse King on Friday, December 6 at 6 p.m. and on Saturday, December 7 at 3 and 6 p.m. at the Unison Arts Center, located at 68 Mountain Rest Road in New Paltz.

The costumes are designed by Mille Weinman, and Corinne D’Andrea created the set pieces. The stage adaptation is by Liz Burdick and Stephanie Marrinan and direction by Stephanie Marrinan.
