About

A sexy and romantic take on the classical ballet featuring opera, circus, vaudeville, burlesque and naughty fun, Company XIV's critically acclaimed Sold Out Holiday Smash, "Nutcracker Rouge" is back for EIGHT WEEKS ONLY. Don't miss this sparkling reimagining of the beloved Nutcracker tale told with erotic, sensual and opulent flair.  Sexy, Romantic and Naughty Fun!

Nutcracker Rouge has been called "dazzling and genius" (The New York Times), "the perfect hot date" (TimeOut NY), "an incredible feast for the senses" (Kelly Ripa), "the greatest holiday homage ever" (Huffington Post), "an elegantly erotic holiday dance spectacle" (Broadway World), the year's "sexiest dance performance" (Paper Magazine) and  “…an opulent, racy take on the holiday tale…. sumptuous, stunning.” (The New York Post)

Nutcracker Rouge is a TimeOut NY Critics' Pick, New York Magazine Critics' Pick, New York Post Hot Pick, NY-1 News Pick, Village Voice Pick and a Drama Desk Awards nominee for Unique Theatrical Experience.

“If you prefer pasties to pointe shoes... It’s definitely as far a cry from Balanchine’s vision of the piece as you can get–and we mean that in a good way.” –TimeOut NY

Running time: 2 hours and 15 minutes (including one 20 minute intermission)
Show contains partial nudity.  Appropriate for ages 16+

    Nutcracker Rogue was outstanding!!!

    by Terenap on 12/11/15Minetta Lane Theatre - New York

    This was my 1st time seeing this performance and I was blown away!! All of the performers were so talented. The show was pure entertainment from beginning to end. I loved the costumes, the interaction from the narrator and the dancing and singing. I didn't want it to end. Some plays you get to a point when you are looking forward to the intermission but this was definitely not one of them. The play and the performers kept me entertained and I'm glad I paid extra for the Orchestra section..... so worth the money. After the play, the narrator met with the audience and addressed questions and allowed for photo ops with her. She had a great personality and had a great sense of humor. I highly recommend others to attend. Great show and wonderfully talented cast.

    Best Burlesque- Sonething for Everyone❗️

    by VFM713 on 12/8/15Minetta Lane Theatre - New York

    This was the most talented, erotic burlesque ... most tastefully done. It would appeal to everyone. A creative and fun approach to a timeless classic that should be experienced by those that can appreciate an eclectic mix of artistry. I will certainly make it a holiday tradition.

    Full of energy and life

    by just4lafs on 12/4/15Minetta Lane Theatre - New York

    Much better than Cinderella. This had the energy and life that Cinderella lacked because the blond bubbly narrator/hostess (whose name escapes me - please forgive me. I want to give you credit in this review, but for some reason your name isn't on the website's cast portion!!!!) who is full of energy was in this one. She is great and knows who she is (Julliard graduate). You're the reason I fell in love with CompanyXIV to begin with - energy, humor and audience engagement. Honestly, I don't even know the story of the Nutcracker, but I enjoyed the evening. I would have liked more singing. I liked that we could record - works for you guys and for us. Win-win. Only reason I'm giving 4 instead of 5 stars is because the lighting people must have forgotten that this was the real thing: they shone the bright lights ON THE AUDIENCE, BLINDING US. They should know better. We paid $175 per seat to watch amazing talent perform, not be blinded! I have no idea what they're thinking or why Austin would hire amateurs and ruin his phenomenal reputation.

    Not What I Expected....

    by travelgirl15 on 11/30/15Minetta Lane Theatre - New York

    I thought this would be more in line with the story of the Nutcracker. I also thought it would be hilarious! It was not. It was mildly funny in the second half. I thought all the tattoos and bruises should have been covered for a more classy effect. But most of all, I HATED the incense that burned through the ENTIRE show! My party all left with sore throats, runny noses, and watery eyes because of it!

    All around great performance.

    by GirlNamedKiki on 1/13/14Minetta Lane Theatre - New York

    Without giving too much away, this is a must see performance. Cirque du Soleil, ballet, burlesque, comedy show, and truly talented singers all rolled into one. The theater has such an intimate setting; coupled with the performances-- it will leave you in awe. Fantastic show.

    NUDIES!

    by pattimae2 on 1/13/14Minetta Lane Theatre - New York

    first 10 minutes were a little slow/confusing but then it really took off - great singers and dancers and lots of (very attractive) skin (male and female)

    Unique and Entertaining

    by Elise0k on 1/13/14Minetta Lane Theatre - New York

    The adaptation was amazing. It used the elements of ballet and the original music, but weaves it with incredible burlesque demonstrations. Definitely worth my time and money!

    Nutcracker Rouge... lots of fun!

    by wrich1953 on 1/9/14Minetta Lane Theatre - New York

    My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Would definitely go see it again, if only to try and catch what we may have missed the first time around.

    Great Friendly performers welcoming & interacting

    by zugubur on 1/8/14Minetta Lane Theatre - New York

    Great Team, I liked the show, the ambiance, the interaction before, while & after the event, very down to earth performers, will go outside the theatre to great you & say good bye & send some positive vibe & laughter. Good Luck Guys, I will definitely like to see it again & see your upcoming shows, whenever I am in the US again. The theatre could be better for the price we paid, but it is not that much bad. would have preferred wider leg space, less inclination of the balcony & for sure less fogg machines prior the show, but the fun during the show made me forget the discomfort.
