Summary

Why it's fantastic
Watch for the moments where the Christmas tree doubles in size and a giant mouse takes the stage to a flurry of toy soldiers. Tchaikovsky’s score is packed with melodies you already know by heart, providing a gentle and colourful entry point if you have never experienced a full ballet before.
