Summary
The Royal Ballet and Opera performs Tchaikovsky’s The Nutcracker at the Royal Opera House.
Why it's fantastic
Expect a trip into a Victorian dreamscape, brought to life through Julia Trevelyan Oman’s period designs and Tchaikovsky’s most recognisable melodies. It is a quintessential festive tradition that captures the magic of a snowy Christmas Eve, making it a reliable choice for anyone new to the world of classical dance.
