Celebrating the 120th anniversary year of the Nutcracker ballet with a world first, Mariinsky Theatre’s The Nutcracker in 3D is screening for a limited time from Thursday 20th until Sunday 23rd December at Event Cinemas. A ballet world–first perfect for all the family this Christmas, this film is a sumptuously traditional production brought to life on the big screen.
The ballet opens with a Christmas Eve party and a young girl, Clara, being given a nutcracker doll by her godfather, Drosselmeyer. Later in the evening when Clara sleeps, she finds herself in the midst of the Nutcracker’s battle against the Mouse King and his army of mice. Coming to her Nutcracker’s aid, he is transformed into a Prince and journeys with Clara to a spectacular enchanted island where celebrations are held in their honour.
With Tchaikovsky’s eternally popular score, the grand staging and exquisite costumes, this Mariinsky Theatre production of The Nutcracker In 3D will be the icing on the cake this Christmas. Starring Alina Samova and Vladimir Shklyarov and directed by Andreas Morell.
