This New Year ballet, based on E.T.А. Hoffman’s fairy-tale The Nutcracker and the Mouse King, is equally interesting for both children and adults. Bright living toys, a Christmas tree and a mysterious magician attract the kids... The adults will hear not only joy and harmony in the genius music of Tchaikovsky – Yuri Grigorovich has transformed a sweet tale into a philosophical contemplation about the impossibility of ideal happiness. Moreover, this is a poetic story about growing up and anticipation of love. The main heroine along with the young audience begin to understand that the Nutcracker has a brave and kind heart, which his ridiculous appearance has hidden, while her love and compassion for the toy leads to an encounter with a Prince. Though, only in her dream...
