What you need to know
- An on-stage narrator explains the story, so kids don't need to know the Nutcracker beforehand

- A touring show, with other holiday dates in Belgium and Lille if this one doesn't fit
About
Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker, staged as a children's edition. A narrator, Madame Rose, introduces the ballet from the stage and explains the story as it goes, so kids who have never seen a ballet can follow along. Prima ballerina Iryna Khandazhevska dances with dancers from the ballet of the National Opera of Ukraine, keeping the classical steps, with full sets and costumes. Suits kids who like music, dressing up and fairy tales.
