The Nutcracker is Christmas!
Enchanting Christmas classic: Tchaikovsky's "The Nutcracker" - on tour with an Italian star ensemble

For over 100 years, Peter Tchaikovsky's "The Nutcracker" has captivated audiences worldwide and has become an inseparable part of the advent and Christmas season. Now a renowned Italian ensemble from the "cradle of European dance" brings this masterpiece of classical ballet back to the stage in a particularly tender production.

The story follows Clara, who on the magical night of Christmas Eve embarks on a wondrous journey into a world full of fantasy, adventure and romance - accompanied by animated dolls, battling mouse armies and a charming prince. The production captures this timeless fairy-tale world and blends it with a delicate touch of modern choreography and expressive stage language.

The audience can expect a visually and musically impressive experience: magnificent costumes, meticulously crafted sets and a top-tier ballet cast whose training and dancing precision are evident from the opening scene. Tchaikovsky's timeless music forms the emotional heart of the performance.

"Especially at Christmas time, 'The Nutcracker' is more than a ballet - it is a gateway to a world where miracles are possible. For one evening we can believe: anything can happen - especially when you love," says the artistic direction of the ensemble.
