Step into a world of festive magic as The Royal Ballet’s The Nutcracker returns to the big screen this weekend.
Peter Wright’s timeless staging paired with Tchaikovsky’s iconic score makes this a Christmas tradition for audiences of all ages.
The magician Herr Drosselmeyer is on a quest to save his nephew. Hans-Peter has been transformed into a Nutcracker doll by the wicked Queen of the Mice; the only way to break the spell is for the Nutcracker to defeat the Mouse King and find a girl to love and care for him.
A flicker of hope comes to Drosselmeyer in the form of the young Clara, whom Drosselmeyer meets at the Stahlbaum’s Christmas party.
With a swish of Drosselmeyer’s cape and a little bit of magic, a cozy festive gathering turns into a marvelous adventure.
