Vienna Festival Ballet presents THE NUTCRACKER with music by Tchaikovsky. Choreography by Kenny Burke.
An enchanting Christmas story telling the tale of how Clara is given a wooden nutcracker as a Christmas present by Dr. Drosselmeyer. During the Christmas party, Clara and her brother Fritz fight over the nutcracker doll. That night Clara unable to sleep with excitement, searches for her doll and then falls asleep under the Christmas tree.
As midnight strikes she is awoken by giant mice and the magic begins.
The nutcracker doll is suddenly transformed into a princely soldier and a battle ensues with the Mouse King. The Prince and Clara are then swept away on a magical journey to the Land of Snow, and enchanted forest with dancing snowflakes. It is here where they encounter the Sugar Plum Fairy, who accompanies them to the Kingdom of Sweets.
