World Premiere production of The Nutcracker, choreographed
by Alexei Ratmansky, performing at the Brooklyn Academy of Music,
BAM Howard Gilman Opera House, from December 22, 2010 - January
2, 2011. Eligible designs were reviewed by a panel of ABT staff,
and were judged on creativity, originality, artistic quality and
the clarity with which the theme was conveyed.
