This year brings something new to our annual concert: our premiere performance of Shorty Roger’s Swingin’ Nutcracker! Music from Duke Ellington’s Nutcracker Suite and holiday jazz classics featuring vocalist Suezie Cioffi will round out the program.

The Williamsport City Jazz Orchestra is based in Williamsport, Pennsylvania, and is made up of many of the area’s best jazz musicians. The group plays popular, familiar, obscure, sentimental, and exciting big band jazz tunes that are sure to appeal to all. The vision of the group is to give great musicians an opportunity to play jazz standards, contemporary music and big band classics to enthusiastic audiences—and to nurture an appreciation of jazz music in the next generation of musicians and audiences.

Tickets are $25 and we will have table seating which is the standard for our BYOB shows. There are General Admissions risers located in the back of the theatre as well as the opportunity to rent a table located in the middle and front of the theatre. A small table is an additional $5 and seats 2-4 people. A large table is an additional $10 and seats 6-8 people. The only way to rent a table is to call our office at 570-724-6220. If you are sitting at someone else’s table that has already been reserved, please write their name in the prompt listed in the buyer questions.
