The Nutcracker 2010 - Wellington
06 Nov 2010 

The Nutcracker 2010 - Wellington
Just what the doctor ordered – a Christmas classic with a twist.

Set in a children’s hospital, Gary Harris’ reworked version of one of the world’s most-loved ballets, is a treat for all ages.

The adventure begins on Christmas morning when Clara’s rat-bag brother, Fritz, clouts her over the head with her beloved nutcracker doll. Delirious with concussion, Clara is rushed to hospital where she enters a fantasy world brought to life by Kristian Fredrikson’s eye-popping, bold designs inspired by Hollywood’s big studio era.

Be dazzled by whirling snow imps and tango-ing tea-ladies as Tchaikovsky’s magical score transports you straight into the festive season.

Choreographer: Gary Harris
Additional choreography: Adrian Burnett
Music: Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky
Design: Kristian Fredrikson

Featuring the Vector Wellington Orchestra.
