A mischievous bear, dancing mice and snowflakes aplenty will charm the entire family in this holiday extravaganza. Set in turn-of-the-last-century prairie home, Nutcracker tells the story of a young girl's Christmas fantasy. You'll be tapping your toes to Tchaikovsky's familiar tunes before the curtain is even up.
The RWB's Nutcracker preserves the best of Russian ballet and spices it up with uniquely Canadian traditions, like playing hockey on an outdoor pond or watching the Northern Lights.
“The stuff of dreams. Still charming the bah-humbugs out of even the most jaded..."
