For the past several years, the people and animals of Circus Chickendog have presented our fair city with their own unique take on Tchaikovsky's The Nutcracker. In their version, the story is told not through ballet but through animal acts and circus performances.
In addition to the six dogs (and a scarlet macaw in the title role), The Muttcracker (Sweet!) features a number of human perfomers, including jugglers, unicyclists, musicians and much more.
