Summary
Rosanna Ely stars as Clara in Birmingham Royal Ballet’s production of The Nutcracker, accompanied by the Royal Ballet Sinfonia at the Birmingham Hippodrome.
Why it's fantastic
Watching the snow fall on stage as the orchestra strikes up the Waltz of the Flowers is the ultimate festive rite of passage. Even if you have never seen a ballet, you will recognise every melody in this production, which remains the quintessential way to start the Christmas season.
