Young Clara receives a Nutcracker doll as a Christmas present from her favourite uncle Drosselmeyer. Unable to sleep that night, Clara goes downstairs to get her Nutcracker doll and falls asleep under the Christmas tree. The stroke of midnight sounds and the magic begins! With all of the time-honoured elements in place, Clara is swept along into a world of mice and soldiers, to the snowflake scene, on to the kingdom of the sweets and the delectable Sugar Plum Fairy. This timeless Christmas classic will enthrall all who see it.
This bewitching show captivates attention and captures the heart. The story elegantly relayed for the audience to fall in love with like many generations before them. The ideal time to become enveloped in the Christmas spirit, this is a sensational performance not to be missed.
