Buster Canfield’s Nutcracker Prince vs the Rat King

For a limited Yuletide Engagement!

World renowned carnival magician and mystical soap pitchman presents the mostly true, actually sort of accurate, story of the Nutcracker Prince, as was originally envisioned by ETA Hoffman in the 1600s, and then completely re-imagined as an old time medicine show. Filled with yuletide parlour magic, bizarre puppets, and brazen holiday chicanery.

Brought to you by Buster Canfield’s Thaumaturgical Wonder Soap
Created and performed by Buster Canfield
