Crown Ballet presents Nutcracker

An Eternal Seasonal Favourite

After last year’s acclaimed tour, Crown Ballet® is delighted to return to the UK to mesmerize audiences with their enchanting production of The Nutcracker.

The Magic of Classical Ballet – Performed Live on Stage

A true masterpiece of Tchaikovsky’s repertoire, The Nutcracker is a charming fairy tale that captures the spirit of the holiday season. Enter a magical world where a humble nutcracker may transform into a handsome prince, and dreams come to life in a whirlwind of wonder.

Based on E.T.A. Hoffmann’s The Nutcracker and the Mouse King, the story follows young Marie, a melancholy girl who receives a Nutcracker doll as a Christmas gift from her godfather, Drosselmeier. Through her vivid imagination, the Nutcracker transforms into a prince, setting the stage for a magical adventure filled with bravery, beauty, and the joy of Christmas.

A Timeless Holiday Tradition

This beloved seasonal classic is the perfect introduction to the magic of classical ballet for audiences of all ages. With its dazzling choreography, Tchaikovsky’s unforgettable score, and a story brimming with holiday cheer, The Nutcracker promises an unforgettable experience for the whole family.

A glittering treat that will leave memories to cherish for years to come!
