The performers, described today by reviewer Martin Keller as being “as famous as the faces of Mount Rushmore,” are presented in their historic concert with close ups and grand master shots singing 21 traditional songs of the holiday with the Vienna Symphony Orchestra.

ROYAL OPERA HOUSE THE NUTCRACKER

Saturday, December 23 11:15 a.m. & Monday, December 25 1:30 p.m.

First performed in 1892 on the London stage, The Royal Opera House’s most attended ballet remains Peter Wright’s The Nutcracker. And according to a Royal Opera House press release, this year’s restaging continues “with it’s festival period setting, dancing snowflakes and enchanting stage magic” with the addition of some of the oldest surviving choreography from the “sublime pas de deux for the Sugar Plum Fairy and her Prince.” Emphasizing especially the relationship between the characters of Clara and The Nutcracker Prince, The Royal Opera press states that this year’s production “gains a touching subtext of first love” that makes it appealing for the entire family.
