As a prelude to Christmas, one of the most emblematic works of the classical ballet repertoire, 'The Nutcracker', arrives at the Alfredo Kraus Auditorium. A work for the whole family that will captivate with its beautiful narrative in the form of dance performed by the International Ballet Company.
Christmas is a big party at Clara's house, and all the children receive a gift. Clara, her beloved godfather, gives her a beautiful doll, a nutcracker. When the whole family is asleep, Clara and her prince 'Nutcracker', after defeating the army of the Mouse King, will travel to distant lands, have fun with magical snowflakes and sweets from different countries that will dance for them. An unforgettable night, full of adventures and beautiful characters. Maybe it's a dream?
This is the story of 'The Nutcracker', the most Christmassy work of universal classical ballet, premiered in St. Petersburg in 1892, with music by Tchaikovsky, set design by Evgeny Gurenko and choreography by Marius Petipa and Lev Ivanov.
A classic brought to us by the International Ballet Company with world-renowned dancers, starring Nataliia Bohdan and Alexandru Balan.
