Kids of all ages are invited to a retelling of this classic holiday story featuring Rosalita’s Puppets, Charlotte Dore’s handcrafted marionettes. Clara receives a beautiful nutcracker as a gift from her uncle, but when it is broken, Clara’s heart breaks as well. As she sleeps, Clara dreams her Nutcracker comes to life, battles the Mouse King, and takes her to the land of the Sugar Plum Fairy.

Wednesday,  December 10,  3:30 – 4:30 p.m. at the East Branch Library, 115 Broadway.
