Historic performance photo of Ruth Page's "The Nutcracker" featuring Larry Long as Harlequin and Dolores Long as Columbine. appx 11x14.


A rite of passage for children of all ages and a fixture of the Chicago holiday season since 1965, this iconic production was choreographed by one of Chicago's most celebrated dance artists, Ruth Page, and raised more than $8 million for Chicago Tribune Charities which provided grants for literacy and employment programs over the years. Attended by over three million people, it was presented at the McCormick Place Arie Crown Theater until 1997. "The Nutcracker" went on to find a new home at Northeastern Illinois University beginning in 2012, where it has been performed by the Ruth Page Civic Ballet annually to sold-out houses. Includes Certificate of Authenticity.
