About the Nutcracker
The Nutcracker is one of the world’s most popular ballets.

Here, she battles with the Mouse King and has encounters with a handsome stranger. As the air grows cooler, Clara and her Nutcracker take a hot air balloon ride across London to the Land of Snow, where her adventures really begin.
Itis a combination of magnificent choreography and beautiful music. The Nutcracker includes famous pieces such as Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy, Battle Between the Nutcracker, the Mouse King, and The Russian Dance.
