Peter Schaufuss' Nutcracker

Queensland Ballet presents Peter Schaufuss’s La Sylphide at London Coliseum, with Luke Schaufuss guesting from Birmingham Royal Ballet, in the lead role of James.

And so to the second part of Peter Schaufuss’ Tchaikovsky Trilogy of the three great Russian classical ballets. In Sleeping Beauty, re-titled A Sensual Dream, the complicated weaving of the choreographer’s vision in connecting all three ballets together begins to make a little more sense – at least to those who had viewed his Swan Lake.

Swan Lake, The Sleeping Beauty and The Nutcracker, the three great Russian classical ballet masterpieces which were created in the late 1800s, grace the repertoires of all reputable ballet companies worldwide.
