Christmas wouldn't be Christmas without this classical ballet, performed to the magical sound of one of Tchaikovsky's most famous scores.
The Nutcracker at London's Royal Opera House
When young Clara's favourite Christmas present – a nutcracker doll – comes to life, she is drawn into a magical adventure. Along the way she battles the Mouse King and visits the Kingdom of the Sweets.
The fantasy is brought vividly to life through Peter Wright's reinterpretation of Lev Ivanov's choreography. Julia Trevelyan Oman's designs and magical tree that grows and grows are sure to leave you amazed.
