Magnificent music, graceful choreography, and dazzling stage design turn this performance into a true Christmas miracle.
The story unfolds on Christmas Eve. Young Clara receives a wooden Nutcracker as a gift, which comes to life as a brave prince.

Clara meets the Sugar Plum Fairy, defeats the Mouse King, and discovers the magic of light, kindness, and love.
