COMES TO LEEDS GRAND THEATRE THIS CHRISTMAS
| A visit to see The Nutcracker is a traditional part of Christmas family entertainment and has been for a very long time. The story never dates and transports both young and old to a beautiful world of make-believe. |
| In the midst of a festive party, as the fire crackles and the pile of presents grows ever higher, Clara is caught up in the warmth and excitement of Christmas and becomes enthralled by her new Nutcracker doll. But, as the clock strikes midnight, her Nutcracker proves to be no ordinary toy.
After saving her Nutcracker from the wily Mouse King, Clara is whisked away on the magical journey of a lifetime through a winter wonderland of dancing snowflakes and the famous Sugar Plum Fairy. Choreographed and directed by former Artistic Director David Nixon CBE, The Nutcracker is set to the famous Tchaikovsky score played live by Northern Ballet Sinfonia. Director, Choreographer and Costume Designer David Nixon CBE, said: “The Nutcracker is not just a ballet, it is a tradition for many families and generations, a way of having shared memories at a time of year when togetherness turns to the fore. I believe that The Nutcracker offers the perfect festive escapism for every generation, a chance to revel in the child-like magic of Christmas.” Tickets are now on sale, visit northernballet.com/nutcracker to find out more and book.
