The Nutcracker On Ice at Canberra Theatre

The world's premier theatrical ice skating company, THE IMPERIAL ICE STARS make their triumphant return to Australia next winter with a dazzling new production of The Nutcracker on Ice.

Over the last eight years, THE IMPERIAL ICE STARS have performed to more than three million people across five continents, with their last four world tours being greeted with standing ovations and five-star reviews.

Now they present their brand new production The Nutcracker on Ice, once again thrilling audiences with their exhilarating displays of breathtaking high-speed leaps and throws, and awe-inspiring acrobatics, coupled with the most graceful and sublime ice dancing. Boasting a 25-strong cast of World, European and National Championship skaters, THE IMPERIAL ICE STARS are set to once again astound and mesmerise audiences with their adrenaline-rich, dramatic performance, all within the intimate setting of a frozen theatre stage.

The production features lavish and fantastical new sets from one of Australia's premier scenic designers, Eamon D'Arcy, whose designs for previous Imperial Ice Stars tours have captured the imaginations of audiences around the world. Together with characteristically sumptuous costumes, magical special effects and arguably Tchaikovskys most famous music, The Nutcracker on Ice promises to be a feast for the senses.
