This festive season, step into a world where anything is possible. Join Clara on a fantastical adventure as English National Ballet’s Nutcracker bursts to life with over 100 dancers and musicians.
It’s Christmas Eve in Edwardian London. A visit to Drosselmeyer’s Sweets & Delights Emporium introduces Clara to an enchanted Nutcracker doll, setting in motion a magical journey. From a glittering Christmas party to a battle with the Rat King, Clara is swept away to a dazzling ice realm and the Land of Sweets & Delights, where the Sugar Plum Fairy hosts a grand celebration in her honour.
English National Ballet’s acclaimed production premiered in 2024. It returns to the London Coliseum to bring you a delicious taste of Christmas delight.
