Guest Principals of the Royal NZ Ballet! Jacob Chown, Adriana Harper & William Fitzgerald With Ichiro Harada & Ai Ito of Japan as Herr Drosselmeyer & the Angel & Dancers of the Academy of Ballet Arts
This innovative interpretation of Tchaikovsky 's fairytale ballet is filled with the anticipation of presents and parties, boyfriends and innocent dreams of romance. The magic for Clara begins as her Uncle Drosselmeyer and a guardian angel give her a special gift of a Nutcracker doll. An enchanted fairytale dream is conjured as Clara and her Nutcracker defeat marauding mice, dance with the Snow Queen and her prince and her innocent quest for romance comes to a fantasy finale in the Kingdom of Sweets.
