«THE NUTCRACKER»

P. Tchaikovsky will be performed at the State Opera and Ballet Theatre “Astana Opera”.
Production by the outstanding choreographer of our time – People’s Artist of the
USSR, Laureate of the State Prizes – Yuri Grigorovich. Set Designer – People’s Artist of the
USSR, Laureate of the State Prizes – Simon Virsaladze.
Conductor – Abzal Mukhitdin, Honoured Worker of Kazakhstan

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...
