Summary
The Royal Ballet and Opera performs Tchaikovsky’s festive production of The Nutcracker at the Royal Opera House.
Why it's fantastic
Tchaikovsky’s most famous score provides the backdrop for this essential winter tradition, where a flurry of snowflakes and a journey to the Kingdom of Sweets await. Julia Trevelyan Oman’s period designs add a layer of historical charm to an evening that remains the definitive introduction to the world of ballet.
