About the Nutcracker:
The Nutcracker is a stunning, storytelling ballet centered on the E.T.A. Hoffmann original 1816 writing about a young girl named Clara who receives a wooden Nutcracker that comes to life as a prince on Christmas Eve. The adventure unfolds with an array of magical creatures including the Mouse Queen, Snow Queen, and of course the Sugar Plum Fairy as Clara is transported in a beautiful winter sleigh through the Land of Snow to her golden throne in the Land of Sweets.
