THE NUTCRACKER
Premiere Dec 16, 2010, 6.30 PM - Antonín Dvořák Theatre
Fairytale ballet for the whole family.
The Nutcracker is a fairy-tale ballet based on the story by E. T. A. Hoffmann (1776 – 1822). It is one of the fixed stars of the classical and neoclassical repertoire of ballet ensembles. Since its premiere in 1892 it has undergone many changes in both dramaturgical and choreographic conceptions, yet its popularity among children and adults has been constantly growing. It tells a story of the magic of Christmas that transforms people into magic beings longing for idyllic adventure. Everything is but a dream enhanced by the magnificent festive atmosphere of Christmas Eve. The Nutcracker is a much-loved and popular ballet among the audience. We hope the new production will please all lovers of dance art.
