The Nutcracker story: It is Christmas Eve and Clara explores the fantasy world of Drosselmeyer's toyshop. As her dreams come alive before her eyes the dolls take her on a journey to the enchanted forest and onwards to the Kingdom of Sweets. Join us as Clara meets all the colourful characters, from the Nutcracker Prince to the Sugar Plum Fairy in this festive, sparkling, quintessential Christmas performance.

These are Ballet Central's only London performances of The Nutcracker before they commence their sell-out performances at the ADC Theatre in Cambridge.
