Ballet Ireland Presents the Magical Christmas Favourite THE NUTCRACKER

By: Nov. 07, 2016
Ballet Ireland is delighted to present The Nutcracker, one of the world's most beloved ballets, to the Everyman audience on Saturday 26th November. This Irish production will be performed by an international cast of world-class dancers, which includes Hayley Cunningham and Cian Hughes, both from Ireland.

This Christmas classic appeals to audiences of all ages, with its fairy tale magic, Tchaikovsky's beloved & sumptuous score, beautiful costumes, and a tale of wondrous adventure - combining to form one of the most delectable Christmas confections imaginable.

Based on stories by E.T.A. Hoffmann's and Alexander Dumas, the ballet starts at a marvellous Christmas Eve party, as the mysterious Uncle Drosselmeyer brings gifts for all the children. When midnight strikes, very strange things start to happen. The Christmas tree grows to incredible heights and Clara's magical Christmas gift, her Nutcracker, leads them into a fairy-tale world. With her heroic Nutcracker at her side, Clara defeats the Mouse King and his army of mice, and they journey to the Land of Snow and the Kingdom of Sweets together...
