Ballet in 2 Acts with Epilogue
Choreography by Marius Petipa and Vasily Vainonen

Fifty-five of Russia's brightest ballet stars return to Burlington to perform this perennial favourite of generations of children, and children-at-heart. The Nutcracker, a treasured holiday adventure, follows a little girl's journey through a fantasy world of fairies, princes, toy soldiers, and an army of mice. The entire family will love this magical experience filled with spectacular sets and beautiful costumes. The State Ballet Theatre of Russia performs the same authentic Russian choreography that is performed in Moscow by the famous Bolshoi Ballet, to the sounds of Tchaikovsky's beloved music. An enchanting performance, not to be missed!
