And this time, Kyiv residents and guests of the capital have a wonderful opportunity to see an interesting interpretation – the two-act ballet ‘The Nutcracker. A Christmas Tale.’ Come on the selected date and get into the festive spirit!
The inspiring power of dance
The ballet ‘The Nutcracker. A Christmas Tale’ is an original take on Hoffmann's world-famous fairy tale ‘The Nutcracker and the Mouse King’. Now this story about the power of goodness, true friendship and love will be told through dance. In this lavishly costumed production, every movement and gesture is imbued with emotion and dynamism.
In the dance performance "The Nutcracker. A Christmas Tale," the majestic puppet master Drosselmeyer turns out to be a real magician who wants to bring a little goodness into the human world. He understands that only the young, kind, and fragile Maria will be able to see the spiritual beauty and nobility of the Prince behind his wooden armour. But the insidious Mouse King wants to thwart these plans, so the Nutcracker will have to assemble a large toy army in order to win. And in dance, this story looks very organic and exciting. Come and see for yourself!
