CHRISTMAS is the most magical time of the year, so it’s fitting that the ultimate festive ballet
The Nutcracker is coming to St David’s Hall!
From the world-renowned Russian State Ballet & Orchestra of Siberia, this
spellbinding production is at the National Concert Hall of Wales for nine
sensational performances from
Thursday 22 December – Wednesday 28 December at 2pm and 5.30pm (excluding 25 & 26 December).
Feel the warmth of the open fire as presents lay beneath the tree before drifting
away when midnight strikes to the mysterious Land of Snow where nothing is
really as it seems. Watch with astonishment as toys spring to life before your
eyes, and the treacherous Mouse King battles the handsome Nutcracker Prince.
In 1891, Tchaikovsky originally based his iconic score on a creepy short story
by German author E.T.A Hoffman entitled The Nutcracker and The Mouse
King, before it evolved into the family fun as we know it now.
The Nutcracker is the perfect way to get in the festive spirit and is ideal for first-time ballet goers!
