Review: MBS’ ‘Bur-less-Q Nutcracker’ is a nutty mix of madness and movement

Mark-Brian Sonna’s The Beulaville Baptist Book Club Presents: A Bur-Less-Q Nutcracker! has become a theater tradition for the holiday season.

Under his MBS Productions company, he’s staged and performed in this Nutcracker for 16 seasons and nearing 400 performances with its current run.

The loony show opened last weekend at the Addison Theater Center’s Studio space and while the show has evolved through the years, it’s not at all short on zany humor and its own rendition of the Christmas classic ballet.

The premise is that the titular book club is broke and needs to raise money fast to pay off its debts. The smalltown invites the big city Beaumont Ballet for a benefit performance of The Nutcracker only to get food poisoning from its hosts.
