Tchaikovsky — The Nutcracker, Op. 71

Tchaikovsky’s unforgettable music comes to life in this enchanting production of The Nutcracker, presented by Naples Ballet with student dancers and guest professional soloists with the score performed live by the Naples Philharmonic. A beloved holiday tradition, this brilliant ballet features an international cast, opulent costumes and stunning sets — delighting audiences of all ages with its magic and wonder.

Based on Alexandre Dumas’ Tale of the Nutcracker, adapted from E.T.A. Hoffmann’s The Nutcracker and the Mouse King, the story follows young Clara on a magical Christmas Eve journey through the Kingdom of Sweets. Along the way, she encounters life-size wind up dolls, a battle with mice, and a brave nutcracker brought to life in a celebration of imagination, joy and the spirit of the season
