With the brilliant music of P. Tchaikovsky, The Nutcracker is the most magical and timeless work of classical Christmas ballet. Since its premiere in St. Petersburg in 1892, it has enchanted generations worldwide.
International Ballet now brings us its stunning version of this classic, with outstanding soloists and the impressive set design by Eugeny Gurenko.
On Christmas Eve, Marie embarks on a dream journey thanks to the magic of Drosselmeyer: she witnesses the battle between the fearsome mice and the tin soldiers, sees her Nutcracker doll transform into an enchanted prince, and together they traverse snowy landscapes until they reach the Magic Palace. There, toys come to life and everyone celebrates an unforgettable feast.
Music P. Tchaikovsky
Choreography: A. Sharaev and Mariana Rusu
