About the Concert

Peter Tchaikovsky's world-famous ballet fairy tale
for the whole family
The Nutcracker
...in a child-friendly, entertaining performance with narrator!

already for children from 4 years

Tchaikovsky's ballet world -- it is a world of magic, wonderland and fairy tales.  The score to Tchaikovsky's much-loved Nutcracker is one of the most ingenious and brilliant ever composed for a ballet, and of extreme elegance.  Famous numbers such as the Waltz of the Flowers, the Waltz of the Snowflakes, the motifs of the Divertissement enchant children and take adults back to their childhood.
The story of the Nutcracker is as Christmassy as the scent of baked apples and the eternal glittering tinsel: the story of children who, on Christmas Eve, are shown distant lands and distant peoples in a dream by a given Nutcracker, enchants young and old again and again as a Christmas ballet.
Now a very special, beautiful version of this ballet classic comes on stage for all children aged 4 to 94, created for children but by no means childish!  The loving performance is danced by a top-class ballet ensemble with outstanding international soloists in a demanding manner and with great elegance.  Colourful costumes and an imaginative stage set promise to enchant every child's heart.
The narrator, who guides the audience through the entire performance, deserves a special mention. Catchy little poems full of wit, charm and love captivate young and old. 
The performance transports its young and old visitors into the wonderland of the playful and romantic, fairytale and dreamlike, which should be part of every child's dream!
