Mariinsky Theatre's The Nutcracker Live - A Cinematic Event

Celebrate the holiday season with an exciting
tradition – the Mariinsky
Theatre’s The Nutcracker Ballet. SpectiCast and EuroArts
Music bring the magic of Tchaikovsky’s beloved holiday ballet to select
theaters. This sumptuous traditional production was filmed at the historic
Mariinsky Theatre in St. Petersburg, Russia,
where the original Nutcracker was first performed over 120 years ago. An
all-time favorite ballet for the holidays, the Mariinsky Theatre’s The
Nutcracker Ballet
is the perfect holiday outing for the whole family.



The Nutcracker tells the story of a young girl Clara, who is
given a nutcracker doll for Christmas. After being broken by her brother, Clara
cares for the wounded nutcracker, which later saves her from the evil Mouse
King and is then transformed into a heroic prince. Together the prince and
Clara travel to an enchanted island where celebrations, hosted by the Sugar
Plum Fairy, are held in their honor.
