From The Royal Ballet, Covent Garden

The Nutcracker

The Nutcracker is a family favourite at Christmas time and is one of the most delightful ways to discover the enchantment of ballet.  The story of Clara, a girl on a magical Christmas Eve adventure, is accompanied by sparkling music and even dancing sweets!  Watch the full company of The Royal Ballet in this much-loved ballet classic.

Peter Wright’s gorgeous production for The Royal Ballet keeps true to the spirit of this Russian ballet classic, and the many solo roles and ensembles show the world-class skills of the Company at its best.
